done all that.... i realised that the LAN card that i used to connect through was the same one that i used for networking the 2 comps, and I MYSELF had put use 192.168.0.1, to make the network work.... << which i forgot about until u reminded me!
so i changed it to automatic, and restarted comp with ETHERNET wires.... and the comp freezes at startup screen [user login screen]. so i shut down, removed the power to the modem, then logged back in, and then powered up the modem again!...... this time i got an ip, but there was no values for
SUBNET MASK AND
DEFAULT GATEWAY! so internet never worked
can some1/zinglebarb plz help!
