Run the Network Setup Wizard. If it finds the router's shared
Internet connection, tell it to use that. Otherwise, tell it that the
computer connects to the Internet through a residential gateway.
In Internet Explorer, go to Tools | Internet Options | Connections |
LAN Settings and clear all of the boxes on that screen.
Connect to the router's built-in web server, which is usually at an
address like http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 and make sure
that it's configured properly. If your ADSL service uses PPPoE, enter
the user name and password.
