I apologize if this is in the wrong forum but my operating system is Windows Vista so........

I am having problems with my internet, my adapter and my router and my modem are all fine i am working on a wired connection and when i connect through the router it cannot connect but when i connect through the modem i get unidentified network local access only . When i plug the router into a laptop the internet works fine (writing from laptop). I tried reformatting and reinstalling but there is no diffrence. I will try to update the drivers but please help as soon as possible.

I'm slightly confused. Are we talking about one or two computers?

i think just one and the laptop was just something he mentioned because he had to type the message with it
