He's, as mine, connection uses DHCP and the IP and gateway addresses
don't appear in the properties window (at least I think DHCP is the
reason). Is there another way to find out those addresses?

If I remember right it's a router (can't reach my brother right now to
ask the model). If 192.168.0.250 or 192.168.0.254 doesn't work, does he
have to search through 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 until he finds the
right one?

The ethernet card is embedded into the motherboard. The motherboard is
ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe and it has two LAN ports. The other one is
Marvell 88E8001 Gigabit Lan PCI
and the other
MCP-T integrated NVIDIA MAC + Realtek 8201BL PHY
Sorry again, I can't ask him right now to find out which one is at use.
Anyway it's the one that was picked by the installer.
Thanks a lot James so far, I really appreciate your help :-)
