M. Harris and Carl, the machine was configured to use dhcp for its ip, he has no problem getting connected. They set that part up for him, I want to be able to open the firewall and allow me to ssh into his computer as he has a sound driver issue and it would be easier for me to fix it than explain it to him.
Okay, that's why I asked about the setup CD-ROM. I couldn't tell from your original post that the account had been activated and his hardware already configured. Here's another link to research: http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm Maybe someone's already posted instructions for his modem/router there?
I am sure that his machine would give up the default gateway with ifconfig, but I would like to be able to talk him through the menus and options to change his firewall configuration in the modem.
