SCO UNIX 5.05 Cant Connect to our Network after Router Reset

SCO Unix 5.05 Network Issue

So let me start by saying Im not familiar with Uniex. I had to reset the router here at my work yesterday and redo the network. This in turn lost the ip address settings in the router and now our Unix server is not connecting with the router or sending emails in visifax. I tried changing the static ip that was set up from 192.168.1.254 to 192.168.1.144 as the new router issues 192.168.1.100 through 192.168.1.149 ip address. I used netconfig for this and it took the change but to no avail. Now im dead in the water. I dont know what to check or what to change to allow for it to make a proper connection to our router. The pc's here can connect to the server through the serial direct connections and also access the router fine through the network. Any help or advice would be APPRECIATED!!!

I used sco unix back in 1997. I believe it was v.4
Do not customize ip if DHCP is working. If you can reach the router but not the outside, chekc DNS settings and netmask.
From sco try pinging the router
Try pinging 8.8.8.8
Then
Www.google.com
Paste results/errors
