well in a hard spot if your using dialup as means of connecting to the internet then only one PC at a time can use dialup connections now if say it was a DSL modem then from the DSL modem or DSL Router Modem you would need RJ-45 cables from the DSL router modem to the two PCs

Connecting to the Internet using a router

1. Choose a convenient location to begin installing your router, such as an open floor space or table. This does not need to be the permanent location of the router. For wireless routers, it may be necessary to re-position the unit after installing it as the signals may not reach all areas needed.
2. Unplug the power to your Internet modem.
3. Power down your computer(s).
4. Plug the power in to your router.
5. Connect your Internet modem to the router. The cable plugs into the router jack named "WAN" or "Internet". Turn on your Modem.
6. Connect one computer to the router. Even if the router is a wireless model, connect this first computer to the router via a network cable.
   
   
   
7. Turn on the computer.
8. From the computer connected to the router, open your web browser. Enter the router's address, http://192.168.2.1, and press Enter on your keyboard.
9. Click Login in the upper right-hand corner of the page. The router does not ship with a password, so just click Submit.
   
10. To configure the router to connect to the Internet, you must enter information provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) into the "Connection Type" section in the left-hand column under the "Internet WAN" heading of the router's configuration page. If using DSL Internet, you may need to enter the PPPoE username and password. Likewise, if you have been issued a static IP address by your provider, the static IP fields (including network mask and gateway) must also must be set in the router.
    
11. If this is a wireless router, change the network name (referred to as SSID). While the router comes to you with a network name set at the factory, you may want to use something more familiar for your network. Read Changing the router's wireless channel and SSID for a description of this process.
12. Plug the power back into your Internet modem.
13. Verify that this computer can connect to the Internet properly. Open a new web browser and visit a few Internet sites such as Google.com or Yahoo.com.
14. Finally, configure additional network security features as desired to guard your systems against Internet attackers.

i suppose you have to connect modem to router's "source" socket and modem to socket "in wall" then reset and reconfig router and you should be ok

Turn off the firewall in both the router and the modem. try again-- once it is working ...just turn one of them back on..

i don;t realy understand ...

so u have a wireless router and the computer that connects to it shows that is connected but it doesn't work on the internet ?

than the computer connecting to the router is connected, but the router it self is not connected to the internet ! Go at the router settings and configure the internet connection ...

if this is not the issue, please try to explain again with more details what the problem is....

Several ways to find out. One is to connect to the router's web based settings and find out if your service provider assigned an IP address to the router. Even though it states that you are connected to the network doesn't always mean you are connected to the internet. Within the settings of the router, under status you should be able to see the IP address assigned by the provider. You can release it and renew it to make sure you are receiving the latest IP that was sent from you provider. The second way to see if the issue lies with the router....bypass the router by connecting one of your computers directly to the modem. If you are connected to the internet immediately then you will know the problem lies between the modem and router. To get into the web based settings of the router type 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 into an open internet explorer address bar. Window should pop up asking for username and password. admin should be used for both. Contact me if you any other questions. Just to clarify though, router's are prone to lock-up or losing signal due to interference and age.

Good Luck.
