Alright ill start over.. Currently i have a Linksys wirelss b. i want to replace it with the speed stream router. so i disconnected to linksys router and put in the speedstream one but i couldnt get any web pages to show up. do i need to get software to install it or is there some changes i need to make. i think this should be easier to understand.

Can you access the router itself? The default address should be 192.168.254.254, put that into your browser's address bar.

If you can't access the router that way you probably need to reset it to factory defaults. Do that by finding the reset button on the bottom, press it in for more than 4 seconds (but less than 10 seconds) until the power light signals red/green alternately. If your unit has a power button use that instead.

Once you've got access to the router you can configure the WAN interface with the connection type (PPPoE or PPPoA) and any other connection parameters such as username and password. These will have been supplied by your ISP, and you won't get a connection unless they are correct.

Here's a link to the manual.

Only if it is a wireless router and conforms to the same specification.

Unless specifically disabled 802.11g is backwards compatible with 802.11b, but neither is compatible with 802.11a.

If they conform you won't get any of the manufacturer specific enhancements, but these only tend to have any practical effect for internal networking, not for internet access.
