You shouldn't have to enter any connection data at all. Try deleting the
connection on the old laptop, connect to the modem and run the Internet
connection wizard.
Run ipconfig /all and post the result.

Hugh,
Thanks for the reply.
I have my own laptop on the same connection and it worked fine. I remove the Ethernet cable from mine and
place on this one and nada. I made the IP address and gateway the same as the one that worked and no luck.
I did install the free AV that M$ gave with the XP security disk and ran that.
The firs time before the vir*s got on, I was able to connect to the Internet, but not finish the M$
internet updates because the v*rus got on. I'm at a loss, because the icon says I am connected and bytes
indicate I am transferring data, but that's it.
