Lesson learned:
Next time, ask how the computer connects to the Internet. Is it via a USB port or via the Ethernet port.

In the US, at least in my area, everyone I know connects using the Ethernet port. Some modems also have USB ports, but no one I know of uses that port. Seems the UK setups prefer using the USB port, which is not compatible with standard routers.
