I just got a new wireless router today and guess what? It doesn't connect to the #^@&ing internet when Its hooked up. Its got to be my modem, I need a password or something probably. Well... it better work tomorrow.
 
Your ISP will give you the pass and username and you'll need to possibly give them the router's MAC address.
 
I got help with some person from SBC (in an online chat thing), and this is what I got:

me: Do I need the Domain name and host name?
her: Yes
me: Can I have them?
Her: To fix your problem, you will have to put the modem in bridged mode. To do so:
*stuff here*
Me: ok, I'll do that
her: Please follow the directions after this chat is finished
me: ok
Her: to set up your linksys WRT54G...
*stuff goes here*
me:ok
her: Bye! (but she said all this crap about a survey)

So I did what she said, and surprise! it didn't work.
I think A phone call would be more easy...
