You plug it into the router and then plug it into the back of the comp and it should work..............

keep the wireless on but that doesnt matter
plug the ethernet chord into the modem or router and make sure everything works
then plug the back end the the ethernet port on your laptop and wait awhile
it should work
oh by any chance what os are you running and what is your laptop maker

If you would like I could look at your settings and drivers through teamviewer and fix and problems. I'll be on for about another hour or so. Just pm me or something.
