I'd try the Internet Connection Wizard first. Again that's if I remember XP correctly.
I tried entering the subnet, gateway and ip manually but it still never caught on. I'm not sure if I was doing it right when I went into my laptop that does connect and went to properties to get all the subnet, gateway & ip information?

I'll try the wizard later tonight.
