Recently i have factory reset my router and have then gone to follow the Quick start prompt. This has succeeded in allowing my PC (connected via an ethernet cable) to connect to the internet. However all my other wireless devices are unable to connect to the wifi even though the wireless indicator on my modem is lit up.

Prior the first factory reset on the router, i was able to access internet via both my ethernet cable connected PC and wireless devices.

I have attempted multiple factory resets on the modem but have achieved naught.

How can I regain internet via my wireless devices?
 
Solution
If you didn't manually login to the router after the factory reset and quick setup, they the password on the router probably doesn't match the password saved on your devices.

[strike]The Quick start simply required me to enter the PPP username and PPP Password I was given from the start. No actual password change was present.
After that the setup was over and i was able to connect to the internet via ethernet however, even though my wireless broadcasts as an excellent signal, whenever i connect to it on one of my wireless devices it drops to a poor signal and a receive an authentication problem error.

Mixed WPA2/WPA-PSK is my current security method and has been unchanged.[/strike]

You were right, The factory reset also reset my internet password to a default. I have changed the password and now it works completely. I thankyou for your advice.
