had a system that used PPOE to access internet through a dsl modem (alcatel)
worked fine
installed a router to network 2 other win98 machines DLINK D614+ plus a
laptop by wireless
those machines all work fine on internet
router handles dhcp, connects to internet through the modem
on the win98 machine to which modem attached before, no internet
-has network adaptor with tcp/ip, uses dhcp and gets IP address, default
gateway assigned by router
router address 192.168.0.1
internet connection sharing is NOT installed
PPPOE was by Enternet 300, which was uninstalled
the troubled win98 machine can
-ping router
-access other machines on LAN, can see them in network neighbourhood
-ping computers with class A and B network addresses (by inputting ip
addresses, not names)
-cannot ping the DNS server on the ISP which is a 207.x.x.x address
-cannot get internet addresses resolved
-routing table (route print) is identical (except for different IP address
for adaptor) as on the machines that can access the internet
have tried giving it DNS server of ISP in TCP/IP setup but that did not work
any ideas appreciated

not sure that I would need that since the connection to the internet via the
modem goes through the router, the other computers do not have PPPOE
software, the router takes care of that
what I wonder if having this machine communicate directly with the modem
before resulted in some settings that cause problems now
