At first glance it looks pretty good, is this a new router or was it previously programmed by someone?

reset it and replay the installation steps. Then log in your 192.168.0.1 and configure your information. Then go boot up he wireless PC, and install drivers etc if you have to and set it up with the exact info you used on the main. To reset the router there is a little pin hole in the back, bust out a paper clip and stick in there. Hold it in for roughly 20 seconds works for me. But to be safe go about a minute. (do that first). ~sphyenx
