Have you compared your PC network configuration with that of the Modem? I'm using DD-WRT router and this provides a lot of options, and certainly for my network configuration it will not work after being reset. So check the following Is the WAN connection using DHCP or fixed IP address, and the router is configured correctly for that WAN connection. Is the LAN side of the router configured to use DHCP or fixed IP address range, and does this match your PC configuration. Is the router configured to allow your PC connection, determined by MAC addresses if set. For the record I'm using Fedora 13 and KDE, and manage my PC/Laptop network connections using KNetworkManager.
