Cable modem works when connected to router, but not when connected to the PC

Why is this?

I keep getting "limited connectivity" when I hook the modem directly to the PC.

I've tried USB and ethernet, and both give exactly the same problem. My ISP is virgin, fwiw.

Ok, I'll give a power cycle a go. Hopefully that should sort it. Thanks.
