Can you log into the router using a web browser?
If you can, try configuring the router to use your computers MAC address under the Basic tab click Internet and it will be on the bottom of the page. Then click Apply at the top of the page. This may give you Internet access.

When I tried to log on to router using a web browser (http://routerlogin.net) I get the Netgear Genie. In the Netgear Genie, the Attached Devices tab lists all of the MAC addresses.
