Solved: Wireless Router Died, Now Desktop Can't Connect

My wireless router suddenly died today, and now my desktop can't connect to the internet when connected directly to the cable modem via ethernet cable.

I've tried restarting both multiple times. My laptop and TV both connect perfectly fine, even using the same ethernet cable from the desktop.

Network and Sharing Center shows my computer > yellow triangle with ! > "Unidentified network" > red X > internet. Clicking the ! runs a diagnostic, but comes up with "troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem."

No error messages, device manager doesn't show any problems. Windows 7 64-bit.
