WRT54G + DD-WRT = AWESOME ROUTER

Google DD-WRT

As John said, its real hard to troubleshoot when you don't know the specifics.

whats your IP address?
Start > Search Box > CMD
blackbox pops up
type "ipconfig" without quotes hit enter.
If your IP address is a 169 number your not getting a good ip address from your router.

If you get a 192 number
try to ping google

same black box
ping goog.com > enter

if no reply your not getting past your router

ping 192.168.1.1
reply means you can see your router

compare your old pc's nic properties... maybe someone set static dns..

as you can see there is alot of checks.

I do recommended upgrading the firmware of your router to dd-wrt gives you alot of options but you'll have to do some reading.

Good luck
