I'm trying to setup my brand new box on the network so that I can
connect to the internet through our annoying cable modem.  However, I
just can't get it to work.  Truly, I hate Roadrunner.  Anyhow, I know
that I need to fill in this information:
 
    Host:
    Domain:
    IPv4 GateWay
    IPV4 Address
    Name Server
    Netmask:
 
Here's what I'm capable of filling in.
 
    Host:  ???
    Domain:  ???
    IPv4 GateWay:  192.168.1.1 --> the IP of my router
    IPV4 Address:  192.168.1.30 --> this is just my local IP behind my
router correct ?
    Name Server: 24.92.226.13
    Netmask:  255.255.255.0
 
And here's what my Windows machine says when I type in ipconfig /all
into a console:
 
    Host Name ... SURVIVAL
    Primary DNS Suffix ... Hybrid
    IP Routing Enabled...NO
    WINS Proxy Enabled...NO
    DNS Suffix Search List...hvc.rr.com
    
Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection:
    Connect-specific DNS Suffix : hvc.rr.com
    DHCP Enabled : Yes
    IP Address : 192.168.1.106
    Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1
    DNS Server : 24.92.226.13
 
I know this is a bit of information to take in, but if someone could be
extremely helpful and assist me with filling in the gaps it would be
greatly appreciated.
