Hi Roger,

I just saw this thread, so, I'm  a few days behind on it. when I saw the 
original post I realized what I "think" it the problem. that would be that 
you've got your modem on the wrong side of your router.

the setup should look like this:

[PC]---->[Router]----->[CableModem]---->{ISP}--->{Internet}

according to you post your setup appears like this:

[PC]---->[CableModem]---->[Router]---->{ISP}----.{Internet}

With the modem between your PC and Router I don't think things are going 
to work too well.
