Have you followed the wireless setup wizard on your puters? and, have you installed the software and drivers that came with the wireless router?

You will want to consult your wireless router documentation. Most DSL modems/routers pass a public IP configuration along to the connected hardware, which is usually a PC. In this case the wireless router will be receiving the IP, but it still needs to utilize the DSL router as its gateway in order to make an Internet connection. That is most likely where your problem is, and it's a configuration change you should be able to find in your wireless router documentation.

You need to set up your DSL modem to pass thru mode. Then setup you router to take care of your PPPoE user name and password. Make sure your wireless router is handling the DHCP, not the modem!!!

You haven't followed the directions or you are not qualified to follow the directions.
