When your computer(s) connect to your wireless router that is only have of the equation. Your router also has to be connected to you Internet Service Provider via a DSL or Cable Modem.
To do this you need to setup the router to access your ISP.
If you are using a DSL connection then goto your routers setup screen and configure it for a PPPOE connection, and you will have to also input your internet service password and username.
If you are using a cable modem then set your router for a Dynamic IP connection. You might have to restart the modem and router after that, but that should do it.

Hi. LAN stands for Local Area Network, which means the PCs in your home. You still need a modem to connect to the outside world.
