Nothing
Since its a router , you dont have to worry anything. Just plugin the Ethernet cable to your iBook and to the router...It should be connected...Thats the beauty of Mac
IF anything goes wrong , go to System Prefs > Network.....and see if there is a green light with IP Address....If there is an IP address , then you're set
Are you connecting via Wireless as well ?

wireless: just enable Airport and connect to your network as u were on PC. And makesure u add the iBook to you router if u using IP filtering. cable: 1) Makesure ur router is using DHCP 2) Connect the network cable 3) Go into the System Preferences (i presume u are on OS X) 4) Click Network 5) Click on Built-in Ethernet 6) Then click on "Configure" 7) On TCP/IP choose DHCP, if everything is fine you should see the IP address after a while. If not go to nex tab & uncheck "Connect using PPPoE". 8) You should be able to online now if nothing is broken.

In Show , select Bulit-in Ethernet
Make sure to select Configure IPV4 - Via DHCP
and then take a look at proxies make sure that Wrb Proxy is not checked , check for other proxies and just make sure that , they arent checked as well
Then see PPPoE , make sure its not set in PPPoE mode
Thats it
If else fails , select Assist me and it should guide you
