Since this list is still dead and I might as well try to help. I don't have WC or the Cisco router but the first things I would suggest you do, and don't be offended by this, I just thought I'll cover the basics is make sure your connection is working properly. This should have already been done for you but if not connect the modem directly to a computer then set up a PPPoE connection with your account details. Once you have that working, you can go on to setting up the router.

Since I don't have the router, can't help much but basically all you'll need to do I suspect is to set up a PPPoE connection with your account details. Of course, you'll need to connect the modem to the router's 'input' first. If you run into any problems, you could try posting them here. Alternatively, do a search for setting up PPPoE with your router. The info doesn't really have to be specific to NZ or wireless connections even though that would be helpful. Once you the PPPoE connection is established, you just need to go about setting up the NAT, port forwarding etc settings to your preferences/requirements. This will really depend on what your needs are and isn't really that different from setting up things for JetStream or any other broadband connection here or elsewhere
