Microsoft Broadband Networking Setup not configuring my base stati

Im getting an error message to either reset the base station or disable any
firewalls on my computer. I don't have any firewalls installed on my pc. I
don't have any virus protection on it (I know...Im working on that) and I
cannot find anything on my pc that says firewall or icf. How in the world do
I get this working??? I want to connect my laptop to dsl from home. Thus
far, no luck!

More info please - how are you trying to connect? Through a modem a router
or what? What operating system(s) are you using? How many PC's are you
trying to connect? can any of them connect to the internet? Are they
connected through a hub/switch/crossover cable? if so can they see each
other?

It was simple user error...I didn't put the plug for the router in the right
place...I am using my laptop now writing this response...thank you for the
reply. It is really good to know that there is somebody out there to assist!

Thanks Tony!!!
