Nothing is ever fully automatic in computerland, unfortunately ;-)
Your broadband router does not have anything to do with Ubuntu. Once
you have the router installed and configured correctly, your Ubuntu will
work fine with it, without any need for software or driver installation.
The trick is that you need to have it configured correctly. Usually
those things have a web interface to configure them. The web interface
is of course not accessible via WiFi as long as it isnt yet correctly
configured, so you need to attach a cable for the configuring bit. Your
router manual should point out what to do for the configuration.
If things are still not working for you, please give a detailed
description of what you tried so far, and maybe a brand and type of the
router would also help.
