Ok, I just recentlly got DSL service hooked up in my
house. However, we are not using indivisual modems for
each computer. We are using a router to split the
connection. The problem that I am having is that I cannot
connect to the internet using two of the computers. We
believe that one of the computers needs to be sent to the
comamy to reconfigure the settings. But, the computer i'm
trying to get to connect should conenct with no
problems. Now the computer that works uses Windows NT.
I'm using windows XP. When I click on the properites of
the LAN connection, it displays the duraion of the time
of the connection and says that it is enabled, so i
assume that connection works through the jack. At my
college dorms, they have a Lan conneciton there, and all
I have to do is plug the cable into the jack and it
connects to the internet with no problems. Is there
anything that Ihave to do differnt here? I'm using
Bellsouth Fast Access services, and i'm using the Zyxtel
ADSL as my modem. For a better visual, I have all of
the wires hooked up downstairs in a diffentt spot. So
again, we are using one intial modem with multiple jacks
to connect. If anyone can help, I would be very
appreciative. Thanks in advance.
 
Ok,here is an update to my problem. Maybe this will make
it easier for someone to help me fix it. I just moved the
computer that i'm using to the room that the computer
that is able to connect via dsl was. And it still doens't
connect. So i guess it has something to do with a
configuration problem om my computer. Any suggestions? (I
also did network diagnostics and it siad taht my internet
exlporer web proxy was not configured, does that mean
anything?)Thanks in advance.
