Yes, we've established this...but I can't access the internet without the usb cable at this point. It's not shaw anyway, but I'm sure it's the same down here.

If I ditch the router it kind of defeats the purpose of having a wireless home network, no?

Ah, maybe you mean get the modem working right before adding the router...my apologies if that's the case.
