I guess part of the problem is that i also use a NETGEAR wireless router (Model WGR614)... I use wireless to connect to my laptop that has windows xp, this is running just fine. My D Link modem connects to this router and this router is connected to my CPU (Desktop, which has Ubuntu/Linux). How to i set-up my router in linux then?... Modem is set-up to gain IP adress automatically (DHCP)... Pls advise Thanks!

How are you setting the IP address on your desktop ? is it getting it via DHCP from the DLink router ? If it isn't .. try to get it via DHCP that'll be the easiest way to get everything working. or if you are you are manually configuring the ethernet device. You have to set the default route to 192.168.1.1 and you have to set your DNS server to either 192.168.1.1 (if the device has a DNS forwarder) or to a valid DNS server.
