Aol/ntl connection problem. Please Help its driving me mad

Hello to everyone.
I wonder if any of you good folk could help me fix what is probably i simple problem. I have a Netgear WGT624 v3 router connected to my cable modem supplied by aol through my NTL cable. I have it connected to the modem with a cat 5 network cable which in turn is plugged in to my routers internet slot.

The router comunicates with my p.c via a netgear WG111 wireless adapter plugged into my computers usb slot. The comunication between the p.c and router is fine reporting a strong signal being recieved.

The problem is i have no internet connection!!!
I have tried a friends linksys router which again was able to communicate between itself and the p.c but also reported no internet connection availiable.

Im sure i have everythings connected up correctly. Im not so sure that i am using the correct network cable to connect the router to the modem. It is a stardard cat5 network cable with the rj45 plugs.

Do i need to use a crossover cable? Ive tried the recommended boot up sequence for the equipment.

Please if anyone has any ideas i would be eternaly gratefull.
Ray
