on the 2nd computer go to a command prompt and type winipcfg. What is the ip address listed? Give a person a fish you feed them for a day. Ask a person to internet search and they learn a skill for a lifetime.

I am making a guess. You ISP is using the MAC address of the LAN card as an identifier. That is why the main computer works. Time to crack the instruction manual and see if you can clone the MAC address to the router. Then your ISP will think that it is your computer and DHCP should be able to connect both of your computers.
