this is the setup I'm trying to do but FAILED
Wall-->Linksys Router-->Desktop

it only works when Ethernet cable is connected directly
Wall-->Desktop

I've called numerous times and All they told me was to contact technical support that charges or install a new jack in my room. tech support will charge like 40-50 maybe even more and ATT tech to come out...they said it cost like 100bucks. I was like fuck that.

I'm really considering changing service...perhaps Cable?

what you guys think? anybody have similar situation?
Does your Linksys router have an internal modem? If it does not, you will need a modem. If it does, you have to configure it to maintain your connection first.
