What kind of information is YAST asking for?

\"the web interface\" is probably the router it self. Most home use routers
run a small web server. If you point your browser at the router you should
get a web page.

Have you tried connecting to the router via good old wire? You might want
to try that just to see if everything is working network-wise on your end.
