Changed ISP provider and is not able to connect to internet through linksys wireless router, model # wrt160n

Linksys WRT160N Wireless Router installation

Depending from ISP it might be necessary to clone your MAC address. To do this you need to login to router settings page. You might find helpful user manual for your router: http://rapidshare.com/files/427341934/WRT160N_ug_0.pdf Start reading from chapter 3

Ok - hook the power to the Linksys - then RESET - the folded out paper clip will work. Once RESET - hook it up to your ISP provided MODEM [ You must have this service to get on the web] now unplug the Modem provided by your ISP or provider - and unplug the router.
WAIT
15 seconds - then
hook up the MODEM from the provider - then hook up the router - then restart the laptop - if wired it will need to be plugged in - if wireless - run your 'search for a wireless signal and you should have it.

Thanks
