Do I have to add DNS setting in the TCP/IP dialog box? It seems that
manually selecting an IP address demands an entry here, but I don't
know what. Also, exploring further in Advanced... I get told there
is no WINS server entry. Plus I don't know which to check out of
enable/disable NetBios, or use netbios setting form DHCP server.
You must set your DNS and your Default Gateway addresses
manually to the internal address used by your router, which is
probably 192.168.1.1.
Thanks for the help Pegasus, but I am not flying yet. Yes the router's
address is that, and I entered it so that now I have IP address
subnet mask 255.255.255.0, default gateway 192.168.1.1, Prefered DNSserver
192.168.1.1, and under Advanced/WINS, Enable LMHosts is checked and so too
is Use Netbios settings from DHCP server. There is nothing in the WINS
window.

While "not flying yet" sounds nicely descriptive, it tells me nothing.
A more informative statement would be if you can ping the router,
other PCs, an Internet site by its IP address, an Internet site by
its name.
