I have a Westell modem (Model 6110) which can connect to Web either by NIC or
                   USB and both connections give the same result-Limited or
No Connectivity.  Upon examining the connection I have not gotten a Default
Gateway or DNS address.  Is this a Network problem and how can this be
tested? Thanks, Jason Sachs.

Do you create the dialup connection  and input user name and password?

As to the requested information I can say the following.  I am connecting to
my ISP via an ADSL with my connection as a static IP address.  The connection
to the Westell modem requires, at first, a dynamic IP to use Westell's modem
configuration program at 192.168.1.1.  MS Windows(HOME) by defaulat connects
to this address, upon creating the connection, by use of the 'automatic'
procedure or 'Obtain IP Adress Automatically' selected.  I have not yet
checked with my ISP as to wheither I can connect over the same connection by
both methods?

The procedure of connection is like this:
you PC visit ADSL Modem by dialup program with account and
password.(wether by USB or NIC).
and the Modem connect with telephone cable.
mostly, create a connection  by dialup program and run the connection,
then input account and password is OK.
