I'm no expert, so others might be able to give you better advice, but this might? be the problem.
Yeah it sounds like you are getting partial information from the router and not the whole bit. I have had this problem with a few of my wireless routers. Do what cable said and log into your router to make sure all of your settings are correct. Then if that still doesn't work then I would try updating the firmware on the router, as it might be a bug, or get in touch with customer service. I know Linksys and D-Link have superb customer service in my opinion.
