Check your cables in the back of the router and desktop make sure that they are configured right modem into router, desktop into router.

Just use the fast startup screen and it walks you through the basic setup. Reading that you're already setup you should just skip until you get to configuring all PCs/notebooks to work with the router and just follow the instructions.
