For some reason, the ethernet port on my laptop is not functioning. I just purchased a wireless router, and according to the instructions for setup I need to at some point in the process connect the router to my computer. I heard somewhere a while back that there is a way to set up the wireless router without connecting the router to my computer AND without using the intallation software the router came with. I am however able to connect to the internet with a USB cable, but my router (and all other routers in the store) do not have a USB connection port. From what I can gather, it has something to do with typing a generic IP address into a web browser or something.CAN ANYONE HELP!!!!Any advise is GREATLY appreciated.Thank you SOO much!
