commcast with wireless router?

Hi, Please pardon my profanity,but right now i am ready to tear the carpet out of my floor. My apt is in a great location, is clean, beautiful, has a lake in front of it, amazing management etc...BUT has the cable connection near the bathroom ARRGHH ( maybe the designer wanted me to poop while checking email) and i cannot run a cat5 cable long enough to reach my bedroom or living room. So i buy a wireless router, a belkin F5D7230. The guy at BestBuy was going to have a fit if I didnt buy the belkin saying that its the best router on god's earth. Now. I do the setup and i can connect to the internet for exactly 24.9867 milliseconds. which is not enough for me to even type the "ya" in yahoo.i keep cycling power resetting, etc i get connected only for a little time. My computer is configured for automactic IP address, I just cannot understand why it doesnt work. Is it the fabulous no-good idiotic useless cheap trash mtrucking RCA cable modem that comcast rents me or is it the belkin?

1. Try taking the router out of the equation, go directly to the modem. If that works take back the router and buy a Netgear. Or a Linksys or another Belkin. If not take the modem back to comcast for another. If that still doesnt work find a different isp.
