Wired connection problem

[J.Gus1]

I have a SURFboard broadband modem, a D-link wireless router, and both the PC
and the Dell Vostro laptop are running Windows XP. Also running Nortons on
the PC and Bitdefender on the laptop. I had E-Trust EZ armor(antivirus and
firewall) , and Network Magic also installed on the PC. Both expired, so I
opted to uninstall both. NM came off without a hitch, everything from
E-Trust stayed after the uninstall, and I finally removed it by deleting it
all from C:. Every since I started trying to remove it, I've had connection
problems that make no sense at all. I can connect to my homepage(google),
enter a search topic, view the webpage, and then when I try to visit another
page, or go back to Google, I get the "IE cannot display webpage" message.
My connections box shows I have a connection, my firewall shows no blocks,
but my PC will not stay online. Through all of this, the laptop I'm typing
on now, works fine. I've went through every Wizard program offered by
Microsoft, to no avail. I've ran the cd that came with the router, reset the
router, and ran any repair programs that are on the PC, and it just keeps
happening. The last time I was able to get about 5 pages deep online before
it booted me. I'm ready to throw the whole thing over the hill out back.
Any suggestions?

I don't have a dialup connection, I have cable broadband external modem, and
I have disabled the original onboard modem. I don't know what Pippo or
bridge mode means. If I have an "always on" connection, doesn't that mean my
router is always running also? If I had the wrong connection type initially,
why did it work several times before it quit? When I run ipconfig/all, what
am I looking for? What info should I write down? I figured it was something
in the PC's settings since the rest of the system works.
