Default getting online

I've installed the network card correctly and it's recognized in Device
Manager with a everything is working correctly. Now I have 3 cables set up in
the house with the ICS host PC is in the living room. Now I booted the modem
and router twice, but no go. I've been using the recommended automatic
setting to get online with no luck. Maybe I have to input some data and use
the manually set up? I have some knownledge about fixing PCs. This Windows 98
SE is giving me more headaches than I can take lately. I'm sure it must be
some data that I have to input to get things working correctly and online.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Daniel

Ok, take a mallet and knock me in the head. As soon as I changed the NIC
card, network card, it worked. I didn't even have to use the internet wizard
to get online. I'm online now and I should've done that first. Just as easy
as changing the network card and booting it.
Thanks, Daniel

Turns out I didn't have to change the network card, I could put the drivers
in manually. I did change the NIC card but it wasn't necessary.
