DSL Modem/Router Problems

I'm having trouble getting one of my computers to connect to the internet through our "Efficient Networks 5871 DSL Modem/Router Combo". The computer was taken off the network to be reformatted and now I can't get it to connect to the internet. Other computers still on the netowrk are having no trouble at all.

I've power cycled the Modem/Router numerous times as well as repaired (also tried ipconfig /release & ipconfig /renew) but have gotten nowhere with it. I'm using ATT Business DSL for my provider and have gotten nowhere with their tech support. I'm beginning to think that something was originally configured on the computer and those settings were lost in the reformat: possibly PPPoE username/password, but I don't see any connections on the other, working, computers besides the standard "Local Area Connection" so I have no idea where to go from here.

Also, I haven't been able to access the router configuration page at all, I'm sure what it's IP is. I've tried the usual suspects 192.168.1.1 or 0.1 but I can't get into it. I'm not even sure it would do me any good anyway since all the other computers are working.

Any help you can provide would be really appreciated, I'm just at a total loss with this one.

Thanks,
Dan
