Right, you've probably already done it but just double checking. Switch off power to modem AND router. Check all connections are correct (use attached diagram as a guide). Turn modem on and wait for lights to stabilise. Now switch your router on and wait for the lights to stabilise on that. open an internet browser on the computer and type in the address bar http://192.168.1.1 and press enter, it will then ask you for a username and password. The username is either blank or "admin" and the default password is "admin". If there is an option for connection type click it and make sure it is set to dynamic. Also make sure that if your modem has a USB port make sure there is nothing plugged into it.

This website may help you and has video tutorials on it. http://www.tech-faq.com/setup-linksys-router.shtml

Hope this helps
