How is your network setup? You have a cable connected to a cable modem. From there is it ethernet or usb? does it go to a computer (which one?) or a router? (or maybe a hub?)
The answers may have some bearing on how to setup your machines. I use a SMC router and my clients all get their ip and dns stuff from the dhcp server in the router. I did need to setup the dns in the router but that only needs to be done once.

Just checked the downstairs machine and that can piong this upstairs machine

I do not have any DNS settings downstairs as I do not have any stable IP I can use.
Can you explain how you have no DNS IP address?
XP uses dhcp to setup its network therefore ther is no dns shown. As I do not have any IP's
that I can use there are non on the lan machine downstairs.
