If you right-click on Network Neighborhood on the Win98 PC and select Properties.
Locate the TCP/IP entry for the network card and click on Properties.
Click on the Gateway tab and check it has an entry 192.168.0.1 - if not add it.
Click on the DNS Configuration tab and check that "Enable" DNS is selected.
Add the DNS IP addresses given above into the section entitled: DNS Server search order. When done, you need to click OK until you are out of the network configuration. It should then ask you to restart the PC.
Once rebooted, can you access the internet ?
does it matter what Host name I call it as it said that I had to give it one?

it isn't connecting.
I typed the secondary DNS in too and renamed the host bit, but no it's refusing to play good today.
