I rebooted the modem, router and pc but the router STILL doesnt connect to the internet!!!

On my new computer it says there is no local area connection as a network cable is unplugged, but all the cables are plugged in correctly. Also on the Linksys connection monitor it says that there isnt an internet connection between the router and the internet, only a wireless connection between the usb and router.
Is the router meant to show up on my old computer as part of its LAN? Cos its not there, all it shows is my usb modem.

I managed to connect my new computer to the net but now my old one cant lol, which is why im typing this from my new computer.
Any ideas why this has happened?
Also it says my security is disabled so anyone can use my internet wirelessly, even though it tells me that there are firewalls, How do I set up security?
