Each of those words has a meaning, but together in the context of an FRC control system they don't make sense.

You've identified the router as the WRT610N, which is fine. That's what came in the Kit of Parts. But we don't know what "the main modem" is. There shouldn't be a modem anywhere in what you are doing. Help us to help you by describing it in more detail than "the modem".

Classmate ethernet port should be connected to one of the router's ethernet ports with an ethernet cable. Check?
i dont understand what you mean by this
What part don't you understand?

Do you know what the Classmate is?
Do you know what an ethernet port is?
Do you know what "connected to" means?
Do you know what the router is?
Do you know what an ethernet cable is?

Everything you need to do is spelled out in the Getting Started guide.
