If you open a command prompt and type "ipconfig /all" (no quotes, of course), what IP address and gateway do you get?
If you do it on a working machine, what IP address and gateway do you get?

SWMBO's Samsung netbook (It works)
DHCP enabled------------Yes

Subnet Mask--------------255.255.255.0

That looked like the most interesting information, but I have to confess that it is all virtually meaningless to me. I think that having DHCP turned off on the Toshiba seems a bit suspicious.
Please understand that if you tell me something like "Yes, that's your problem, just turn DHCP back on and it'll work" will be of little use unless you also tell me exactly [in words of one syllable or less]
HOW to accomplish that.
Is the above information useful, or would more data help?
