Yep because the PC is seeing the IP of the router and not the modem (and turning the built in firewall is not the problem so that's ok).
Have you actually gone into the router setup yet? If not it may just be something needs setting up properly.
If necessary (from page 15 of the manual I linked to above) you can clone the working MAC of your connection onto the router and work around the problem that way. You do that through the Primary Setup page of the router config.
