After this is all connected up, power the modem off/on. Wait for lights to settle. Power router off/on, wait for lights to settle, reboot PC and laptop.
Sorry if I'm confusing anyone. By 'Cable router' I mean a black router which is hard wired to my white cable box on the wall and connected to my home PC.
I have the Internet port on the wireless (netgear) router plugged into the black modem.
I don't have the PC plugged into the wireless router at all - I think what you are saying is that I should have?
