It would appear that your router will only hand out 1 IP address on your LAN at a time :-(
You said it was "plug and play". Did you ever make any configuration changes to it? You may have run some "automated" setup software that mucked with it.
I'm not familiar with the model router you have, but you need to figure out how to log into it (using a web browser) and look at it's dcp settings.
My problem is solved. Turns out the friendly employee of the Office Depot sold me a switch which of course, will NOT assign more than one IP address. I exchanged it for a router and everything works just fine...
Sorry this took so long to resolve. In your original post, you said you had a dgs-2205 router. If I'd taken the time to look it up on the d-link site I would have seen immediately that it's not a router, but rather a switch.
You said it only gives out one address. In actuality, it doesn't give out any addresses. Switches don't.
The first device you connected (pc or vta) ended up getting it's address from your modem. It's the modem that only gives out a single address.
With a router, the single address from the modem gets given to the WAN side of the router. The router then hands out addresses from a different pool to your LAN devices.
