Answer 1

Whoah, hold on hang on wait up stop for a second.
Linksys router is alomst definatly using the RJ45 ethernet connection port.
Im not sure what this At&T modem is. If it's plugged in to your wall and is serving up some kind of broadband internet connection then you need to look again, becasue this ALSO is using the RJ-45 ethernet connection port.

On a DSL modem, if that is what it is, you will also have an RJ-11 port. this looks like an RJ-45 but it's smaller, and that will go from the modem to the wall. (phone jack) you want the big one. the RJ-45.

Look closely at that cable end. Sometimes the little click-prong gets tweaked a bit and you have to push it around (not force it in to the machine but manipulate the prong to make sure it is lying about 10-15 degrees from flat against the rest of the connector plug. You want Wall >--Rj-!! (phone cord) --> Modem >--RJ-45 (Ethernet cable)-->Linksys >---->Computers.

Linksys is a company (owned by utilising Cisco systems) that manufactures domicile and small/medium-sized company community kit which includes routers. Your ISP (cyber web provider provider) could grant you with a a DSL or Cable modem. you may connect the router to the modem.
