Find my default Gateway

[Mike]

I have more then one PC that get onto the internet though
one broadband Conition. thay are setup to "Automatically
detect settings" to logon to the net. Now I need to setup
some to use "Default Gateway" to logon but I do not know
what the gateway numder is on the ones that do logon
because there setup to "Automatically detect settings"
and there is no number in the "Default Gateway". How can
I find out what my "Default Gateway" whoud be and how can
in set this up?

Right-click the local area network connection and click Status |
Support to see the Default Gateway address.

If there isn't a Default Gateway address, it's likely that your
computers are connecting to the Internet through a proxy server, in
which case they don't have a Default Gateway. Proxy servers use a
different mechanism to give Internet access to computers.

That is the case - where can I look on the PC to find the
proxy server
