    192.168.0.7 is the one not working.
    It has a correct ip for the internal network. Therefore it can be seen by the router and it can see the router.
    If it has a fire wall, turn it off.
    Is the router blocking that address from accessing the internet/outside your intranet.

    Turn off your router and all computers. Wait 2mins, turn on router wait for all green lights to come up; then turn on this computer - next wait for this to boot up to the desktop.
    Does it come up with a different ip address. and can it connect to the internet.
    You can now turn on the other computers and do their ips change?

    ping www.google.com
    any firewall installed?
    any infections
    any proxy server set in IE connections?

    Ping on working PC - good
    Ping on non-working - could not find host
    No firewalls
    No infections

    Proxy server ? Not sure I have been using Firefox

    Ping 8.8.8.8
    And if it is successful, manually assign your DNS entries to...
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4

    Then check by pinging google.com
    If OK, it should then be working.

    I had a problem with these large Virgin 50MB modems and the DNS broke on 2 that I tried, but only with both Windows 7, but XP was fine.
