TCP/IP Maybe??

At work we have 8 workstations connected to our Windows 2000 Server. I
hooked up a DSL connection to one of the workstations (phone line
proximity). After establising a connection I then hooked up to a router and
then the switch hoping it would allow the server (and network) internet
access. When I clicked on the browser a connection Wizard started and it
asked if I wanted to use a direct dial up or connect thru another competer
(which I clicked on). It never connected and now none of the workstations
can "see" the server!!! Can't Map Network drives either. We do back ups on
Tape but I was hoping not to have to restore the whole drive if it's some
setting I can change back to "normal". Any Help??

Is the new router sitting between the workstation and the rest of the
network? Are you wanting to setup Internet Connection Sharing from that
workstation or use the router as your Internet gateway?
