Okay, let me tell you the situation before I explain the problem.
I used to live with my friend and I connected to Videotron's basic cable internet (600 kbps) with my laptop computer using a DI-524 wireless router. Everything worked fine.
Three weeks ago, I moved to anoher appartment to live with my girlfriend. We signed up with Videotron again for the internet, only this time we're using a faster, 7 mbps cable connection. The internet is working fine when I connect directly to the modem with a cable (proof is I can write that message right now).
I brought back my DI-524 router with me back when we moved and now I try to reconfigure it so it work where I live now. The thing is, no matter what I try, I can't connect to the internet through my router, although I can connect to the router itself. I tried reseting the router back to its original configuration, but no cigar.
I think the problem has something to do with the MAC address, because no matter what I put in there, it keeps saying the MAC address in invalid or in the wrong format. I tried cloning the MAC address and manually entering bot my modem's and ethernet adapter's addresse but it didn't work either. I also know it's written in hexadecimals so I can't have mispelled it.
I'm short of ideas as of what to try. Maybe you can help me?
