These so called Linksys, Netgear, D-Link routersa re basically switches with a little gateway/router/dhcp functionality built in for convenience. You just don't have to use the WAN port.

my hathway modem

give modem details. Cable modem or ADSL modem .
Do you use a dialer to connect ?
or
it is "always On"?

Post ipconfig /all data.
Start RUN type cmd type ipconfig /all

As far as I know and as I have it, the cable modem that comes with a Hathway connection is a Scientific Atlanta (now Cisco) WebSTAR DPC2100 - always on connection - either DHCP or STATIC ip address

Para two ;
Combining a CABLE modem and an Adsl WIFI router is,
sometimes difficult and we have to spoof the MAC addresses.

will revert back after some time .
sorry for the delay in responding.
After Google search :WEBSTAR DPC2100
will down load user manual etc and will reply.
