All you should need is an Ethernet cable and the setup CD for your router. The modem you describe has both Ethernet and USB connectors. In order to use it with a wireless router, you will need to do the following, in more or less the order stated: Power down your computer and the modem Unplug the Ethernet cable from the back of your computer, if it is connected that way.

If it’s connected via USB, remove the cable entirely and obtain an Ethernet (Cat 5 UTP) cable. Connect the Ethernet cable between the modem and the upstream port on your router. This will be a special port meant to connect to a modem Connect a second Ethernet cable from another port on the router to your computer, assuming the router has extra ports for wired connections.

Most do. If not, your computer will need a wireless NIC of its own. Boot up all three systems.

Once they have come up, run the setup CD for your D-Link router. You will probably have to clone the MAC address from your computer before Qwest will authenticate your router. Information on your modem can be found here: http://www.qwest.com/internethelp/modems/gt701/index.html See http://www.d-link.com for information on your router’s make and model Sources: Cited IchtheosaurusRex's Recommendations 6-Foot Ethernet Patch Cable (Yellow) Used from: $3.00 This .

Normal connection verification and then contact Quest -- may be that they're restricting the MAC address. Normal troubleshooting first -- you connect the Qwest modem to your computer and everything works fine? Next disconnect for your computer and plu that same cable into your DLink Wireless Router WAN port.

Sometimes it's helpful to power down the modem, and Dlink. Turn the modem back on and allow a minute. Then power on the router and resume setup.

Look for the light on the router indicating the connection on the WAN port is there. If it is, try again with the setup supplied by DLink. Look to make sure your firewall isn't restricting your connection to the DLink.

If that doesn't work, you might want to contact Qwest. I don't know about their service specifically, but some providers restrict the connection by MAC address and when you add a router you need to have then release the connection and re-establish. I haven't seen that with larger providers, but it could be a possibility.

Otherwise, perhaps more indications -- are you able to connect from your computer to the DLink hand just access their admin panel (regardless of the modem or internet)? Do you see the front panel light for your connection from the computer to the DLink network port (usually ports 1 though 4). Hope that gives you a direction to look..

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
