Cry for help, here.
I had and have a working DSL internet connection. It works if connected only through the modem.
I just bought and set up an Encore wired router (ENRTR-104). It appears that the internet connection works, but I can't get a web browser to work. I tried IE and Firefox. I tried different combos of security. Windows firewall is turned off. Pinging the router is successful. I'm going to try pinging a website after posting this. Tried powering down and back up (router, modem, then pc). Settings are on DHCP (or whatever the acronym for dynamic IP deal)
As you can see, I've done a little research, but to no avail. This is my first experience with a wired router and I knew almost nothing before.
Anyone have any ideas. What info did I leave out?
Many thanks.
EDIT: Tried to ping www.google.com and www.yahoo.com. Didn't work. Sorry, I guess I don't have a working internet connection through the router.
