Re: (OT) Building a network
You probably don't need any software for the router. Just a web browser _should_ work, but again, I have never used D-Link...
Does the modem have a cat 5 port on it? If so, you just need to remove the USB cable and hook it up with cat 5 to the router in the WAN port. Then plug another cat 5 cable in to your computer, from a port on the router. You will need a network card for the computer, if you do not already have one. MotherBoards made in the Last 3 years or so generally have a network card built in to them. Your desktop computer plugged in with cat 5 should configure itself to network through the router if you are using windows 2000 or XP. Might need to reboot, but that should be all. If you are running windows 98 or ME, it gets trickier.
