What is the make / model of the router. Many have a reset button - worth trying that to ensure you are on manufacturer settings.

Unplug and disconnect everything.

Now connect the router ethernet to the modem
connect the router to PC#1
connect the router to laptop

power on the modem, give that 5 minutes to settle
power on the router, give that a couple of minutes
power on PC#1 & laptop

Both PC and laptop should automatically get an IP from the router. If not check the network connections settings on your PC or laptop to see that TCP/IP connection is set to automatic.
