I have a ADSL USB modem which is ZXDSL 852 and a wireless router (Linksys Wireless G-Cable Gateway). ADSL modem only has a usb port and RJ11 for ADSL connectivity. Linksys wireless router has 4 Ethernet ports (RJ45).
I have connected ADSL modem through it's USB. And I have connected the Wirelss router to PC through a LAN cable. When PC has internet from ADSL modem is it possible to get internet to the Wireless router? I want to browse internet from my phone's wifi connectivity. I tried but I couldn't browse internet through the wireless network. 
My first questions are ,
1) is this possible with a USB ADSL modem ? ( I could configure wireless network with a ADSL router earlier)
2) if possible what should I do to get this done ?
