Re: New modem.. wireless router help.

Okay, obviously we werent using two ethernet ports as that doesn't/didn't exsist. Sorry if I'm making this hard, our family aren't great with technology.

We have only one ethernet port in the back of this pc (Old pc, assuming newer ones have more than one?) And that goes into the back of the modem. The model number for the modem we're using is: E080C013.00 - The serial for the wireless router is *1W92917J0782A*

Even when the buttons on the front light up and show we have wireless working and internet to it, we still can't get internet on the laptop. Say's a local connection is unplugged and I'm not sure what to do about it. Also, i think that kills internet to this pc. If i put the ethernet in the modem and the internet port on the router, by putting the pc's ethernet cable into port 1,2,3 or 4, should that give both my laptop and the pc internet? Or am i being really stupid?

Thanks for the help and advice all
