Please provide a little more info. What Internet Service Provider do you have? Cable or DSL or Dial-up? Not saying that I can answer your question, but each ISP requires different set ups for accessing the internet.

I installed an ethernet card in my nieces system running XP, but i cant access the internet. i have it hooked into my linksys router and thought that the connection would be automatic. what other steps do i need to take to get it online?

Control Panel > Network Connections. Does your Belkin card show up? If not you may need to install some Belkin drivers. If yes, is the connection enabled? If not, you know what to do next.

Good luck, jimbo
