Please forgive me if i'm going over old news but in real need of some help

Tim, if your wireless is not working at all, then that's a different issue.

Here's we've been mostly discussing issues where the wireless is unreliable: works for a bit, then drops.

Your issue sounds like a basic setup problem, in particular like your router's DHCP has not been setup correctly.

You should be able to connect to your router by visiting your router's IP address in a web browser (possibly using https). Then in the setup screens you should be able to adjust its DHCP settings.
