wait just on cable? are there other computers connected to your router? or are you just one computer connected to cable

Yhea, if your the only computer on your router, you won't see anything. You can still connect to the net and use the 'net just like you should. If you have computers on the network in the house, you have to have shared resorces(ie, folder or drive) before you can browse the network. At least with 98 you have to share something on another computer before you can browse it. Otherwise you get errors.
