need help with router and DSL

I need help with a router. It was working with DSL one moment and not the next. Our DSL service changed from one phone line to another, which ended up as canceling one service and starting a new service. I had to setup the modem following AT&T's phone tech instructions to connect to the new DSL service. I can get a PC to connect to the internet directly through the modem. When I put the router between the PC and modem, I can't get a connection. I followed the Linksys's instructions to setup the router with the new DSL account information but it still won't connect. There were some steps to change the router IP to 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.2.1. The router doesn't connect set to either IP.

The phone tech walked me through resetting the modem and entering a new login and password. I didn't notice any mode changes but I wouldn't know it if I stared it in the face. The phone tech said the router has to be set in bridge or bridged mode to work and offered a pay service to handle third party equipment. I declined since I figured the router wouldn't know the difference.

For reference, the network consists of a DSL modem into a firewall router, the router splits to one wired PC and a workgroup switch, the workgroup switch splits to another wired PC and a printer. The network works as before, it just won't connect to the internet through a verified working DSL modem.

Help!

Thanks,
Sixto
