Linksys router help! Nook wont connect?

My little brother just got a nook for christmas and we have a hell of a time trying to get it to work.It can see our network and has the password saved but is stuck at continue setup. I was told i have to put its MAC address into our router to allow it through.

Everywhere says to click the wireless tab on the router page (192.168.1.1) but i dont have that tab. I have all the other tabs and can change multiple settings, but nothing about wireless or even a spot to input the IP given to me. Can someone please help???

Linksys Model BEFSX41
Added (1). Ok, thats what i thought too, i thought this was just a security thing. The actual wifi comes from our Frontier box (model 7550). I originally tried to connect to this box but i cant figure out how to connect to that.Is there a different IP i have to type in or do i type in the same IP but just disconnect the llinksys first?
Added (2). Ok, since i last commented i disconnected my Linksys and only have the frontier box running. Obviously the internet works but i still cant connect to the router.the 192.168.1.1 address just loads for about 5 minutes and then times out. Any advice on how to actually connect to this box?
