FWIW, you should not need to add an additional network connection (LAN icon) to put a router between your computer and cable modem/DSL modem. Unless you have a hardware defect on your ethernet port, I suspect you have either got your network connection properties set wrong or the router options are the problem. First, get the ethernet jack to work with just the cable modem, then work out the router settings. Also, check your ethernet connection Properties (you guessed it, right click, select properties and click configure) and make sure the device is enabled and your drivers are up to date. If in doubt, go to the manufacturers web site and download and install the latest enet drivers for your system.
you can also go to that network cards properties and deselect "show icon in system tray"


as far as "mustang dual weilder"....in video games, when you carry two weapons, it is called dual weilding.....i have two mustangs, hence, mustang dual weilder....
