Now please start your own thread, don't hijack other folks threads. It's way to confusing to have multiple problems in one thread.

Haha okay now that we have that sorted...

Both laptops work at other hot spots, so it must be the router...
Is there a way to make it compatible with IPv6, or do you think it would be easier just to go get a new router?

Again, thanks for the help.

Make sure you have the latest firmware for the router. Then reset it to factory default settings and try again. If it still works only with ethernet, disable the wireless signal and use it as a wired router only. And, yes, shop for a new wireless router.

You can simply disable IPv6, you don't need it.

Did you get the wireless working or did you go shopping?
