At last I succeeded in my effort to make the router work.
I used winipcfg to get the host and domain names, and also
the DNS servers for my PC when directly
connected to the modem. Then I went to the Control Panel, Network,
DNS config, and there I entered the host and domain names and the two
addresses of the DNS servers, and it worked!
My router is not a cable modem, but it connects to the one provided
by my ISP through a net cable.

After that, I attempted connecting another PC through a wireless card.
Everything seems to be working properly (the driver correctly detects
the channel used by my router; the signal strength is 85% and its quality
is 99%), but I cannot connect because I always get FCS errors.
The SSID from my router is "Default", and the wireless card driver scans
for signals and rapidly gets this "Default" SSID.
Any idea about what is happening?
Many thanks in advance.
