If its an ISP supplied device, I wouldn't use wps for setup. It can sometimes get coded different and cause issues.
The support site has a video (2nd one i think?) showing using the installation assistant. I'd use that.

If it doesn't work, tell me in details where its failing. We aren't there to see whats going on so we need details/steps in the process that aren't working.
