What sort of internet connection do you have? Cable, DSL, etc?

Also do a search of the knowledge base. Somewhere in there is a list of ports that need to be open on your router for SL. Could be your new router is blocking something SL needs.

I imagine the new router is the problem. It probably needs to be correctly configured. I don't know what has to be done though. Lucky for me my more tech savvy sweetie did ours.
