Hi innojohn69,
There are a few things that go into that. You need to first define what IP addresses you want your LAN devices to have, and know what type of WAN connection you have (DHCP or static).
I do recommend you learn some basic Cisco administration or you're going to have to ask for help for every little thing that goes wrong. You can start with this guide to the Cisco CLI, and work your way through the other guides. These guides are just short simple examples though meant as a supplementary resource to other learning materials.
Learn how to use the CLI:
http://www.internetworkingcareer.com/command-line/how-to-use-the-cisco-cli/
Now, to answer your question, you need to configure the interfaces and the static route:
To configure the Interfaces and routing from global configuration mode:
Assuming you want 192.168.0.0/24 for the LAN and using a DHCP connection for WAN
interface fa0/1
ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.25.0
interface fa0/0
ip address dhcp
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 dhcp
Then, you need to configure:
Please use the above guides to configure the rest. There are detailed examples with the configurations included. If you need any further assistance, let us know.

when I do
interface fa0/0
ip address dhcp
on my cisco 2610 router, I would have to apologize that it does not work.
This is what I get:
nyangau>en
nyangau#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
nyangau(config)#int fa0/0
nyangau(config-if)#ip address dhcp
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
nyangau(config-if)#
Thank you.

Hi,
What version is your router? You can tell with show version. Is it lower than 12.1(2)T?
If so, you need to upgrade your router version in order to get this command.
If it is higher than 12.1(2)T can you show me the output of :
int fa0/0
ip address ?
?
I've never seen a router not be able to use ip address dhcp before.

Tim

I think it is a 12.0 but I will check real quick

Hey Tim, upgrade it with what version? Do I have to pay for the software?

Anything above 12.1(2)T. If your router is licensed/registered you will be able to download from the Cisco website for free. Just google Cisco 2600 download software to look for it. You will need to log into Cisco with the account that is tied to your product.
