Chelsea,
If you follow each step (don't skip one) in the links you should be able to get some connection. Do not rule out the possibility that the router has failed. Although this is one of the newer devices, many manufacturers have been suffering with cheaply made capacitors from overseas. I had a different model Linksys die that was a little more than a year old. Bad caps in the power supply were causing all kinds of problems. If you are still having problems, try contacting the computer staff person for your school and see if they can walk you through it. If you can't do that, perhaps a team in your area might be interested in coming over to help you.
