The Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the INPUT socket in the router. (it might be marked as WAN). Then another Ethernet cable is run from a output socket (there might be 2 or 3 sockets) on the router to your PC. The first time you connect a wireless router you must connect by Ethernet cable to configure the router (for added security setup can't EVER be done on a wireless connection). The router should have written instructions and might have a CD with an automated setup program.

Good Luck
