no internet connection

#1 (**permalink**) 09-18-2008

I cannot connect to Internet on my desktop thru my router, only if I connect
directly to the modem. Router works ok, as I've tested it with my laptop.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

Can you tell me the made and model type of the modem and router. So I can
see how to check the settings for you.
