why not call the router's techsupport?

because it's painful. Make sure you have your modem connected to the WAN port on the router. Then check your network cable that goes to your computer. Routers usually come with an installation cd, so use that.

You could try the Repair Connection facility offered for the ethernet port. Or go to the CMD panell (RUN --> CMD) and execute:

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

You will previously need to ensure that your TCP/IP settings for the ethernet port on your PC are set to Automatically Obtain Address and that your reouter is ints factory default state.

I'm surprised because it's always a negative experience for me.

Well, first check the network cable color code if it rong it shows limited conectivity or no connection because router needs only and only 100 speed color code second thing do not give the ip address let it obtain it self i think your problem is related to color code of first check it
