I agree this will probable fix your issue. In addition if you've already set up your base station with the proper information you probable just need to power everything down and then start powering them on again--> Cable modem, Airport, computer.

Also, for DNS information, rather than using your cable companies DNS numbers you can also just use the Airport base stations number there, 10.0.1.1
