Can you get to the router using IE and http://192.168.2.1?

Turn off the router, wait for 3mn, turn it back on. Is
the wireless light on? If it is off, go to the router
(using a wired computer) and check the Enable Wireless.

Why would the broadband modem stop him from connecting to his router, Chris?

It wouldn't, but he was complaining about having lost connection entirely.
It happens once or twice a year here, where the DSL provider (Verizon, not
my ISP) changes software on their routers. My first line of testing a lost
connection is always to reset the broadband modem. If that doesn't kick
things into action, then I check further. So I asked.
