(OT) configuring for router

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi.
I just got a router (zonenet) and I've never had a router before. The 
person who brought it knows nothing about linux. What do I need to read or 
where can I find information on how to configure my 
/etc/network/interfaces for the router. We plugged the router in but while 
it showed data, my computer didn't go online. for one thing, the only dhcp 
server running should be on the router so obviously I have to change my 
/etc/network/interfaces.
I did try looking this up on google but I kept running into stuff about 
_building_ a router in linux instead of what i want to know. Any help or 
referral to information would be most deeply appreciated!!! I'm posting 
this here because I often don't get lists back from debian lists and I'm 
afraid that on mostly sighted lists people will be doing some kind of 
configuration with X.
Thanks.
