Need Help setting up a USB ethernet adapter to a DSL modem

Asked by youngblood105 in Telecommunications Providers, Operating System Specific Networking, Miscellaneous Networking

Tags: ethernet, usb, adapter, dsl, modem

I currently turned a Gateway WindowsME nightmare into a "Frankinstein" Windows 98SE comp. The reason for this is because WindowsME sucks heh. So I downgraded to WIN98SE for now untill i can upgrade to WinXp.

Heres the problem:

I connect my SBC DSL modem to my computer through a USB D-Link Ethernet adapter 2.0. The modem is setup correctly with the telephone wire leading from the wall to the Modem, and the Ethernet cable connected to the adapter than to the modem. The two lights on the adapter are ilumination to show a connection and power. The modem has 5 possible lights that can be illuminated, Power, Ethernet, DSL, Internet, and Activity. When i turn on the power and let it sit for a few seconds; the Power, Ethernet, and DSL become illuminated. The Activity light will flicker here and there. The only light that doesnt illuminate is the Connection. I have tried CMD "Ping 192.168.0.1" and have recieved 4 of 4 packets. When i type in "ipconfig" this shows up...

Windows 98 IP Configuration

0 Ethernet Adapter :

IP Address. . . . . . . . :0.0.0.0
Subnet Mask. . . . . . :0.0.0.0
Default Gateway. . . . :

1 Ethernet Adapter

IP Address. . . . . . . . :192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask. . . . . . :255.255.255.0
Default Gateway. . . . :192.168.0.1

Now im unsure if having Two(2) adapters is complicating the connection or what; but i do know i have a connection because when i go into Internet Explorer and type in "192.168.0.1" I can get to the DSL providers server login.
