To access the router's web configuration page you need to be on the same subnet.Have you even assigned a IP address for the card first?

If the router is serving IP addresses to client machines through DHCP then this shouldnt be a problem,but if it isnt then you need to assign a static IP first.

You can assign one by going to system config>networking (i'm not sure of the exact location so dont count me on this one)

After assigning one try accessing the router web configuration page & configure accordingly i.e DNS nameserver addresses,default gateway
