I've set up my Thomson TG585 v8 router to my Mac OS X v10.9.5 with an Ethernet cable. On the router it says that my internet, broadband and Ethernet are connected as they flash green but my wireless isn't. When I'm using the computer, the Internet is not working yet it's still green on the router. Is this issue on my end and if so, what steps should I take to establish the Internet and wifi?

Lets ignore the wireless for the moment
You have an ethernet cable connected to the Mac

Do you have any other PCs you could test the cable on

you have a green light on the router where the LAN cable is plugged in - usually numbered 1-4

Whats the model of the Mac you have ?

Do you have any other devices connected and working with the router ?

lets see an ifconfig from the mac
heres a video that shows you how

Might have the wrong kind of Ethernet cable ,there is a crossover cable for connecting two computers together and a straight cable for connecting from router to computer.
