BT broadband wireless help

guys i really need some help.
i was with ntl and set up a trendnet wireless router with pcmcia card in my laptop and a wireless card in my desktop for the missuss. we had to shift to bristol and BT adsl was the only option available. they sent me a voyager 205 adsl modem/router. i have been unsuccesfully trying to set the router(trendnet tew231 brp). currently i have ended up using a usb wire from the modem and that seems to work but no joy with wireless.
also after reading the advantages of voip here i ordered sipgate tel no and grandstream budge tone-100. it came today but will not work via the ethernet port of bt modem/router. i hope it will work via the wireless router when it will be setup.
hope fully someone there can help me with stepwise directions.
