Hello, thanks for that help, i have not reset my modem yet because i did not 
htink that could be the problem (i tried the modem with my other laptop in the 
past and that worked fine) it is now set to hdcp in the window so I am not sure 
if thats alright because i thought htis was used for routers.
I will start up my mac again in a few moments and see if it works.
Greetings, Anouk,

  There is a network setup dialog which I (though I am an Internet engineer) 
found very easy to use.  Generally if you are connecting directly to a DSL 
modem then you just need to enable PPPOE. If you are connecting to a cable 
modem, then the problem is probably that your modem is locked on your old 
computer's ethernet card. Take the power off and then on  for modem and see if 
that solves the problem.
  You can reach me at oncohnfairfax on skype for more help.

    Hello, my macbook pro arrived this morning via ups I must say its quick, i 
ordered 8 days ago via bank transfer and a custom configuration.
    Everything works fine although i get lost in a few dialogs.
    I cant connect to the internet htough. I use a cable modem and udner 
windows i can just push in the network cable and I am ready to go. Not so now 
htough.
    Any idea of what routers work best with the mac? I was thinking of getting 
a linksis pre-n router, will that work?
    If i just configure the touter right and it works on the pc should i also 
just be able to plug it into the mac for it to work?
