Not sure I can help but I can tell you that the WiFi connections will work even if you are not getting internet. So that is normal. Your devices are connecting to the router (gateway) but the router is not passing along the internet, probably because it is not picking up internet from the phone jack you are plugged into.

If you take it back and plug it into the original spot, does it work? Have you tried other phone jacks around the house?
