BTW, sorry but I should've asked my question in a better way. My router connects through the ethernet port, and I've got to manually dial a connection every time. It isn't an always on connection. And I'd already tried navigating to the router configuration page through the browser, but I didn't get the page at all.
@NucleusKore- Well, you see, I'll create a virtual Linux machine using VirtualBox, but I don't have the time for that right now, so I wanted to know if I could surf the net through a live CD of Linux.
I want to dump my pirated copy of XP, but it's not possible right now.
I've dumped all pirated software though, and use only FOSS.
I'll try NucleusKore's suggestion BTW.
