Broadband on Windows XP

Hi,

I have a BT Broadband connection with an integrated router and hub (the
black 4 port BT one) with windows XP.

When setting up the router it synchs up ok with the telephone exchange and
the PC recognises it is there but I am unable to send an traffic across the
connection. I do not have a static IP address.

Can anyone help?

TIA

Are you getting a valid IP address form the router? Check by opening a
command window and running "ipconfig /all". Can you ping your default
gateway? Can you ping your computer's IP address? Can you ping your DNS
server?
