So, you have a PC and a lappy or 2 pcs?

Why dont you just use the router to connect both pc and the internet?

I run a PC and a lappy and the pc is connected to the router via Ethernet cable, my lappy via wireless.

You need to find out if your computer is seeing the ethernet adapter first, find out the IP address and gateway and compare it with the router. Chances are they are not the same IP address and it's the reason why you are having so much problems with internet connectivity.

Program both the ethernet adapter in your computers(s) {plural for both of them} and then set up your router to see the internet and your computers. You might need to cal on someone if you don't understand how to do this.

But, in a nut shell... simple do a "Ipconfig /all" at the command prompt to determine what your IP's are to begin. I think you'll discover the error and go for fixing it.

Hope this helps.
