Macbook Pro is OS X Lion. I have the Netgear WNR2000 router connected by ethernet to my DSL modem and I am attempting to connect my Macbook Pro to the router through an ethernet cable, but it won't work. For some reason the wifi works but that's not the problem, I'm trying use an ethernet connection through the router to the Macbook Pro.
