Sounds like your version of Netscape is out of date.

Well, if your home PC has a cd burner, simply download the Mac version of a 
browser - like Internet Explorer 5 off Microsoft.com - and burn it on a cd. OS 
7.5.5 should not have any problem reading a pc cd-rom, I don't think.

Come to think of it, though, I am not sure what version of IE can work with 
OS 7.5.5. I use IE 5.1.7 on my 5300, but it requires OS 8.1. I know the rest of 
the list can help you with a modern browser for your OS, though.

Aha; did not know you were using the USB connection on your modem. I think 
they are either/or.  And yes, you may have to reconfigure it to use it via 
Ethernet cable. Of course, a cheap router would allow you to use both 
simultaniously.
