Lol sorry. I have an NTL modem with a usb port that connects to my old computer. It also has an ethernet port that is connected to my Linksys WRT54GS wireless router with speedbooster v4. This is in turn connected to my new computer wirelessly via my Linksys WUSB54GS usb adapter with speedboost.

On my new computer it shows a wireless connection but no LAN therefore I cannot connect to the net, but my old computer does show a LAN is present.

HOWEVER, if I switch off n reboot the modem, router and old computer as Zinglebarb said, the internet works fine on my new computer, except that now it doesnt work on my old computer.

Any ideas? Oh and how do I set up security (password etc) for the router? Cos at the moment I got nothin.
