Thanks for the tips.
I just asked my mom and she said the conection comes into the house and splits into 2 seperate connections(with the use of a hub). One connection goes to the phone line(its the modem), and the other connection goes to the wireless router. I was trying to plug the ethernet cable into the moden, the only problem is that is being used by the phone lol.
I just bought a wireless adapter...
