My setup is just a modem from my ISP connected to the router, it isn't one of those router/modem combos. Do I need to set a static IP?
No, I haven't had any luck. I tried connecting directly to my modem as someone stated but it won't work, and I have given the model number and brand of it.
Are you able to go online when connected straight to the ISP's modem? If yes, were you able to run the port check and what result did you get?
