When you switch from DSL to Cable you need to tell the router you are switching from the DSL Protocol, PPPOE, to a Cable Protocol, most likely Dynamic or Static IP.
Log into your router by typing 192.168.0.1 in your explorer window. When you are in the routers config page got the WAN section and select Dynamic IP from the selections and hit Apply.
The router should reboot and you should be connected to the internet.How do I setup my wireless router with my cable modem?
Here is how my Linksys is hooked up. The incoming cable internet is plugged into Internet slot on the back of the router from the cable modem The other cable runs from the #1 slot from the back of the router to the pc itself.
Also you may want to try (if you haven't allready) simply unplugging your cable modem and waiting a minute before plugging it back in. I'm no expert but I'm not sure your router will work with cable internet, you might need a Wireless-G Broadband Router.
You have to reset it first and then set it up for the new cable connection.
here's an install guide.
