Your laptop situation makes me think the router and other to do with the
actual Internet connection are OK. Your ability to communicate between the
server and the workstations makes me think the server NIC is OK.

Do you have any errors logged on the server? Can you browse from the
server? Is this SBS standard or premium (IOW is ISA involved)? Can you
ping 68.142.226.41 from the server (sorry yahoo)?

What are the workstations showing for default gateway?
