I am having a problem accessing certain sites through my wireless router. I can get on when I am connected directly to the cable modem but not when wireless. This started happening about a week ago.

Sounds like some sites or services have been blocked by the router.
Do you have admin rights to the router?

I had this same problem last year. I played with it for several weeks following everyones suggestions and could never correct the problem until I just replaced the router. Still don't know what was wrong.
Good Luck? Please post back if you end up correcting it.
