is there any specific stuff that i should be looking for in ipconfig/all?
it shows a ip addy that is different than the computer that has working internet. subnet mask says 255.255.0.0 or something like that. dchp is enable. autoconfiguration is enabled.

just to cover the basics again.. DHCP is enabled?

are you using the same cat-5 cable for both computers? and are you seeing a link light on the modem and your nic?
edit: also, are all of your operating lights on the front panel of the modem on? send, recieve, online?
