router issues

minigamer said:

everything is wired. It's a wired router. I have the modem wired to the router which is wired to the computers. I can turn the router on but when trying to install the router software it says my router isn't getting power. I was going to try to bridge my modem (hoping that was the problem) but, I can't get into the modem settings either. I think both the router and the modem have the same address and that is why I can't configure either of them.

Disconnect your Modem and just connect your router directly to one of your computers. See if u can then access the router page, Modems dont have a lan address they only carry your Actual IP address from your ISP. Shouldn't be conflicting.

Just disconnect the modem from the router and try to install the software then.

Post Back With results. This is rather mind boggling. something isnt right.
