Use the Linksys utility CD that came with the router.  Make sure your computer is already connected to the internet through the modem, then run the CD and follow the directions.  You'll need to have the phone line going from the wall into the modem, then the ethernet cord going from the modem into the router.  The utility takes you through installing the router step by step, telling you when to hook up things.  Just make sure you have your Verizon username and password handy.

Wireless Networks\nWhat I know\n\nBegin with the high speed DSL or cable service.  As far as I know, wireless networks would need one of these, although it is not certain that a simple wireless network needs a dedicated line; it might work with a dial-up but configuring the wireless router might be impossible since it seems to depend of internet access to do so.\nAssuming broadband is available, the next step would be to install a wireless router, such as a Linksys WRT54G, a device capable of speeds up to 54 Mbs.  The device itself has an internet-like address of 192.168.1.1 and each device attached to or accessing it has an address which converts the last digit to the form 100 or 101 and so forth.  Thus, a laptop with a wireless card might be address 192.168.1.101.     One can access and configure a Linksys router by entering the address 192.168.1.1 into a web browser and is immediately presented the configuration screen. The person doing the configuration change must have the user name and password originally entered at the time the device was installed, assuming the person installing it changed the default factory user name and password.  The Linksys router is installed by first attaching your main computer to the DSL or cable modem, then using the supplied software on the CD accompanying the router, following the steps as directed on the installation CD.  It directs you to attach an Ethernet cable from your computer to the modem, either DSL or cable, then arranging the wires from wall outlet or TV cable to the modem, then from the modem to the router, plugging cables into the jacks as shown.  If one follows this set of instructions, internet access is immediately available through the router.\nA simple wireless network need not be entirely wireless. One or more computers can be wired to the router, usually up to a limit of four, plus other wireless devices.  The Linksys routers are limited to 253 devices and defaulted to 50 total devices, but realistically it is not likely anyone would attach that many to a network.  My original configuration had the desktop wired to the router via Cat 5 ethernet cable and the laptop using a wireless card.  Later I installed a Netgear  USB adapter to the desktop and converted it to wireless.  The advantage of attaching the “main” computer by cable is that the speed is much faster, around 100 Mbs compared to 54 using wireless, although Netgear makes a wireless router capable of 100 Mbs.This higher speed would be an advantage when two devices on the network are exchanging files or accessing a shared printer.\nHaving installed the router, the next step is installing or inserting a wireless adapter in each computer.  This usually implies installing drivers and/or utilities supplied with the device on a CD.  If the main computer is wired to the router, it is only necessary to attach the Cat 5 cable from the back of the computer to one of the available ports on the router.  The computer must have an Ethernet (RJ45) port built in or a network card installed to do this.  At this point, no network exists, but internet access at each computer, wireless or wired,  normally comes on automatically with little trouble by the user.\nNow for setting up a true network.  Assuming each computer is running Windows XP, the next step is allowing Windows to create the network.   On each computer it is necessary to go to the Control Panel and select Network Connections, then select Network Setup Wizard. Windows will construct the network using the names of the computers involved and the name of the network which you gave the wireless router.  Simply follow the windows presented making sure you know the name you have given to that computer and the name you gave the network when you installed the router.   Where are the names to be found?  The computer name is located internally and is accessed by going to the Control Panel and selecting System.  A tab is labeled Computer Name and it also has the workgroup name

You plug the phone cord into the modem, and then the modem into the router. This assumes you have an external modem. If you want to share a dial-up connection (I'm not sure the reason, but certainly one may have a reason), you plug the phone cord into your computer, and then enable internet connection sharing, which comes with Windows XP. Enable this by right clicking on your dial-up connection in network connections, click properties, and advanced. check the appropriate box.

Connect the Cable Modem to the WAN port (RJ45 connection)of the wireless router. Setup of the Wireless router and the laptop to use the same SSID and define whether or not you'd like to use encription. If you choose encryption, ensure the laptop  has the same encryption key and the router.

No, you cannot use a router with dial-up connection (phone cord can't plug into router,etc.)  If you have a wireless adapter in your computer then Yes, you can pick up wifi signals at airports, etc.

first, consider using a wireless router with your dsl modem. then put a card or adapter in your laptop.\n\nThe issue with your laptop is software or settings... basically the same.\n\nif you are a total novice i suggest calling either your isp or your router's company to get setup instructions.\n\nyour laptop and modem and router need to recogize each other so they can "talk".\n\nyour HOME Network can have endless PC and/or Macs attached at the same time.... you just need to set up each one\n\napparently you either dont' have plug and play or you have a security backup.

Yes the best wireless router you can use is Linksys WRT54G in this case you have a modem cum router so you will have an internal ip of 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 something like that ,check that and follow the list. Please follow the list\n\n  \nPlease follow these directions to setup your Broadband modem:\n\nConnecting your Broadband Modem to the Router\n\n1.      First connect directly to your Broadband Modem without the router and verify that you can get on line.\n\n2.      Once you've verified that you can get onto the internet without the router please proceed. If you can not please contact your ISP for further assistance.\n\n3.      Now unplug the Ethernet cable that connects to your Broadband Modem from the back of your computer.\n\n4.      Take the connection that you just unplugged from the back of your computer and connect it to the WAN port of the router.\n\n5.      Take a different Ethernet cable and plug it into port closest to the WAN port, or into the LAN port.\n\n6.      Look on the front of the router.   The following lights should be illuminated:\n\n-           Power\n\n-           WAN Link\n\n-          Link/Act (On the port that you connected your computer to)\n\n-          Note If other lights other than Link/Act are illuminated on this port, that is normal\n\n-          You may have a few other lights illuminated depending on the model number router you have, but the 3 above must be illuminated for proper connection.\n\n7.      Hold the Reset button on the router for 30 seconds or more\n\n8.      Restart your computer\n\nConfiguring the Router\n\n1.      Go to your desktop and double click on Internet Explorer (Located on the Start Menu in Windows XP)\n\n2.       When "Internet Explorer" opens type http://192.168.1.1 into the "Address" bar and click on Go\n\n3.      The "Enter Network Password" window will appear.\n\n4.       Skip user name and type admin (admin is the default password) as the password, and click OK\n\n5.      Change the LAN IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1**\n\n6.       Click Apply\n\n**NOTE:  Once you click apply you will no longer access the router via http://192.168.1.1, but http://192.168.0.1\n\nFinishing the Setup\n\n1.      Shut down your PC.\n\n2.      Unplug the power from the back of the router.\n\n3.      Unplug the power from the modem.\n\n4.      Wait for 30 second.\n\n5.      Power up the modem.\n\n6.      Wait for the lights to stop blinking.\n\n7.      Power up the router.\n\n8.      Start up your computer.\n\n9.    Surf the internet.\n \n \n\nNow to setup wireless\n\nTypically most non-Linksys branded wireless adapters have their own built-in Configuration utilities. If unsure on how to use them, please see the Wireless Adapters documentation or contact the Manufacturer of the Wireless Adapter. If Windows XP is being used, then the Wireless Adapter may use Windows XP’s built-in configuration utility, which would be the same configuration as Linksys products under Windows XP. If this is the case, try the following instructions:\n\nClick on the Start button and click on the Run option. \nWhen the “Run” window opens, type ncpa.cpl into the “Open” field and click on the OK button. \nWhen the “Network Connections” window opens, right click on the Wireless Network Connection icon and click on the View Available Wireless Networks option. \nClick on the SSID that the Wireless Network is using (linksys is the default SSID on all Linksys Wireless products). \nAfter clicking on the SSID of the Wireless Network, there will be either a check box stating, Allow me to connect to the selected network, even though it is not secure, or “Network Key” and “Confirm network key” fields. \nIf there is a check box, check it, then click on the Connect button \nIf there are “Network Key” and “Confirm network key” fields, then input the Wireless Networks WEP Key, then click the Connect button. \nAfter clicking the “Connect

Well first of all you need two things.\n\nYou need a wireless router and you need to make your computer wireless. Just because you get a wireless router, does not mean the router is the wireless. The router first needs to connect with your DSL, and then the router acts like your DSL and sends the connection to your wireless computers. In order to make your computer wireless, you need to also get a linksys PC card that will easily attach itself to your computer. If you want to use your USB port, get the one that connects to your USB. \n\nOnce you get those two setup correctly, you can get wireless access to your router. I recommend that you password your wireless connection so that other people cannot get access to your DSL.\n\nEDIT: If your computer comes with it internally, then you dont need a separate card for it =) Yes you just need the wireless router 802.11g. If you need more help just add more details...I will check back on this one.

Here is a very detailed description of networking:\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/default.mspx\n\nYour setup isn't cleary defined but it appears you will need two network cards in the computer that connects to the DSL. One to connect to the DSL, one to connect to the wireless hub.\n\nBut, I could be mistaken since your configuration isn't clearly defined.\n\nRead the article, it should answer your questions.

If you have hi-speed internet access you can purchase a Wireless router and a wireless network card. The router enables you to access your internet via ethernet cable or via wireless connection. The wireless network card can be a USB network adapter that you can attach to any USB port on your computer. If you already have a wireless router in the home all you would need is the adapter.
