There is a cable coming from the dish to the starband model 360 modem.
There is an ethernet crossover cable from the modem to the built in ethernet port on the HP desktop computer.(This computer can connect to the internet without a problem).
From the second ethernet card on the desktop a crossover cable connects to the wireless router (Linksys WRT54G) in port #1 (NOT the WAN port).
There are also seperate power cable to the router and modem.
My HP desktop recognizes the network and indicates that it connects to the network, but will not load any web pages. I am unable to ping and web pages from the laptop.
I know the connection seems strange, but in all the meterial I have read, the modem MUST connect to the PC first because of software issues or the starband service will not work. Please let me know if you need any more details.
Thanks for your assistance
