Call your ISP and give them the MAC Address of the Netgear router. They need to add it to their access list to allow it to connect to their network.

the equipment that you have there is just a router it doesn't have a modem integrated to it. if it is really a modem/router it should have a slot for a phone cable to connect to. get a modem from your ISP

you better get a 2wire modem/router.. it's easy to configure and besides it has it's own firewall.
