the modem should be set to automatically obtain ip information (this is supplied by your isp)
the ip mask your RAS is giving to you is fine.
you must be sure that your RAS have "IP Routing" enabled, and that's all.

huh? 255.255.255.255 restricts the network to just that one ip address
yes, and all the comunication is done using the routing service
the problem is with the router.
as you can see, 192.168.1.165 is almost always used by local DHCP servers.
im betting the routers internal address is 192.168.1.4 as shown by the gateway.
whoever setup the router did not fill out the DHCP option correctly. this subnet will need to be reset to 255.255.255.0
also, if this computer IS the router....
then you need some router training :)

if you're using a proxy server, disable it, for microsoft proxy server there is a icon in the control panel called winsock proxy client, disable it and then try and connect to the Internet, this should work

can u please try these settings
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : SECTRUST2000
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
if u'r using a stand alone pc for surfing net then u need not to use default gateway settings.
