If the modem light is blinking it means that there is activity, so this is normal.
However, the globe/internet light needs to be solid green. If it is blinking it means it is attempting to connect to the internet.
Make sure first that the internet connection is working when directly connected to the modem. If yes, then the router might not be configured properly. To check the configuration on the router, access the setup page by using a web browser. Type 192.168.2.1 in the address bar.
By default the password should be left empty.
Once in the setup page of the router, go to Internet WAN. Select the connection that your ISP is using. Either, PPPOE (requires a username and password from ISP) or Dynamic, (the settings are obtained automatically from the ISP). If you are not sure, contact your ISP.
I hope this helps!

that means there is usually a problem with your modem. you know how to hook up a router, right? usually you unplug power from both devices, plug in your modem and let it load, then plug in your router. (with some isp's id will work the other way around.

without the CD.
MAke sure that your computer is able to go
online through the modem.

Then you need to connect the computer to the
