"When i switch the router on i get green solid lights for the power, the wireless, and the dsl lights, but that is it."

Sounds like your modem router is bricked. Continuously-solid lights on all ports, even when nothing's plugged into them, usually indicates a bad/nonexistent CFE. The CFE is the part of the firmware that has instructions for how the router boots up and initializes stuff. This is a very hard thing to fix if you're not familiar with JTAG or serial connections and protocols. And if experience is worth anything, you'll more-than-likely even have to solder the JTAG/serial connection onto the board, for they don't usually come with those connections already ready to use. That's assuming this router even comes with JTAG/serial...
