Hi Elaine,
I wasn't able to get it to work. I've pretty much confirmed it's the router however. I tried another router and it works fine with the modem, and I had a friend check my router on his network. It didn't work there either. So I'll have to buy another.
Perhaps it was damaged in the storm that killed the modem.

Maybe I can get some compensation from the manufacturer. Oh well...
Thanks for following up.
