Unplug the router from the ADSL line.
switch off the second PC.
disable the wireless adapter in the PC.
Set the pc's UTP port to "obtain an IP address automatically"
restart the router
open a cmd window on the pc and type "ipconfig /renew" (alternatively reboot it if you prefer)
See if you are assigned an IP address by the router - which will a) be proof the thing hasn't gone FUCT and b) give you an idea of what it thinks its own IP address is.
If that doesn't work, see if there's a reset port, or a "global nuclear reset to factory settings" for the router.
Don't bother about the ADSL line until you can get at least as far as getting an IP address from the router; ditto don't bother with the wireless.
Post again if there's any progress.
