Unable to access the router's configuration.
Normally I would access the router's (it's a Linksys WAG54G) configuration page by going to 192.168.1.1 in a web browser. But since I wired the router up to my Linux laptop (Debian Sarge) I can't get in. When I try, it is the same as typing 127.0.0.1 (local loopback). Why is this, and how can I fix it?
Edit: Also when it is configured properly, I still can't get on the internet.

Are you able to ping anything? The router for example?
What's the content of /etc/network/interfaces?
What's the content of /etc/resolv.conf?
Are you using DHCP?
