SBC Global DSL, and LAN

I very recently, last 2 days, obtained DSL through SBC/AT&T. I've got DSL working with two computers in the house hooked to their gateway modem/hub/wirless device. They are both direct connects with an ethernet cable between the PCs and the gateway device. My PC had been hooked to a LAN that goes to a PC in the garage. The connection was a straight run cable from this PC to the garage. I used specific addresses. I couldn't get to DSL, and a SBC tech said I'd have to use DHCP for my connection to do it. Changing it solve the problem. Fine. Now about the LAN.
I'd like to get the machine in the garage on the (2 PC) LAN. I figured I could just use DHCP for it to, and plug in the cable from it to the gateway. That doesn't seem to work. I just did an ipconfig (no arg) and got this:
Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : gateway.2wire.net
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.68
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254
Who belongs to the IP address above? How do I get the IP addresses of my machine and the one in the garage? Perhaps pinging them might help. What am I missing here?
