Internet Connection Experts out there -- I can get online on the desktop but no connection on any of the iPads or laptops. Repaired permissions, rebooted, disconnected, then reconnected all ethernet connections, router, cable-modem.
But if the router works fine with the desktop, and the iPad and laptop aren't connected physically to anything, I'm confused how it's router issue. Modem has 2 more ethernet ports. This is wearing me down.

Correction; those are telephone ports, not ethernet.

Might be a long shot, but if I were there, I would hook up everything the way they were before you started trouble-shooting, power everthing down (not just reboot), then one at a time power things up in the order that they're connected, waiting 5 minutes between each item.

Did that: powered everything down, disconnected all plugs, then rebooted modem, then plugged in router, then plugged in desktop and rebooted. I'm trying to determine if I even need the router. If not, trying to figure out how to rewire the ethernet cords.
