Correct. It is set up like that. It has been working fine for at least a year. About a week ago is when my desktop would not connect to the internet anymore. I have not changed anything.
Try powering off everything for 30 seconds and then turn on the ISP Modem/router, then the wireless router. Now startup your Desktop and see if it connects. I sometimes have issues during electrical storms and power flickers.

kmills9,
Your setup should look like...
Wall > ISP Modem/Router > Wireless router > wired/wireless
You need to plug the Desktop into the wireless router.

I have done all of this. My laptop and all my wireless devices are working, it is just my desktop that is not connecting.

kmills9,
Check the ethernet cable and disconnect it, then reconnect it. I had a friend that the cat bumped the cable and caused this issue.
Any yellow exclaimination marks or red x's in the device manager?
Try hitting the Windows Key and the R key at the same time, this will bring up the run command. Type
CMD
Hit enter. Now type
ipconfig /all (space between the g and /)
Copy and paste the results here.
