The first thing is to get a PC talking to the router with as little
in between as possible - a straight ethernet cable is best.

Then see what the router is saying.

I've had spikes blow routers partially and router PSUs, both.


Yes, I can get into the router interface using a standard patch cord
and putting 192.168.0.1 into the browser . All appears to be in
order.


But is it connecting to the internet?
