Are you plugging the modem into the router? If so, the router should be getting an IP address from your ISP as if it was your computer. Your router will use a default IP address only for the "inside" of your network, but none of the "inside" IP addresses would even be visible from the outside - and the modem would be the link to the outside.
Perhaps you need to confirm that you're plugging the modem into the WAN port and not one of the LAN ports.
(I've been using the same model of router here, so I'm familiar with how to configure it.)

(pretty odd for a modem...)
You can change the LAN IP range and router address from the router's web interface - on the left frame, click on "LAN IP Setup" and you can change the router's IP address (don't forget it, but use something easy to remember - say 192.168.1.1) and change the starting and ending IP addresses for DHCP to 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.whatever.
