Thnks, Roland.
The deeper into the forest, the fatter the freedom-fighters are.
I thought that, as the literature says, to network two w2k to share files
and a printer one needs no network knowlegde. Just plug them into the router
and here you go.
No I see how naive I was.

1. 130.57.4.70 works OK on all the computers
2. "NAT Port redirection, forwarding and DMZ" - does not make things any
clearer for I do not know what DMZ is. Is it necessary to study the whole MS
Network+ Certification Course to make two w2k work together :-) ?

Oh, God!
a. How I learn if the router could pass the information ?
b. How do I point it to the ISP's DNS server and make sure port 53 is open
on the firewall ?

4. I can browse to http://192.168.1.1 and login to the router settings.
But I am very nervous about tempering with them because two other computers
on this router work fine, therefore the problem should be in the computer
settings, rather then with the router, and changing router might make
problems on the other computers, might it not?
However the existing TCP/IP and DHCP settings might be of interest:

      LAN IP Network Configuration

       For NAT Usage
        1st IP Address : 192.168.1.1
        1st Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
       For IP Routing Usage : disabled
      2nd IP Address :192.168.2.1

      2nd Subnet Mask :255.255.255.0

DHCP Server Configuration
Server Enabled
 Start IP Address : 192.168.1.11
 IP Pool Counts : 50
 Gateway IP Address : 192.168.1.1
 DHCP Server IP Address for Relay Agent : blank
 DNS Server IP Address blank
Primary IP Address : blank
 Secondary IP Address: blank

Dynamic DNS Setup is not enabled
RIP protocol control - disabled
NAT setup:
Private IP Address Range defined by RFC-1918:

      10.0.0.0 --- 10.255.255.255 (10/8 prefix)
      172.16.0.0 --- 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix)
      192.168.0.0 --- 192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)
