Static means non changing, right?

In your first post you mentioned.....

IP Address is what he was assigned by Qwest, good.
Subnet 255.255.255.0, good.
Gateway 192.168.0.1 ---- ?!?!?!

But you haven't told us the IP Address assigned by Quest.

I don't know about others here....but I have a hard time putting my head
around network issues when all the information is not given.

ipconfig /all    would be a good thing to post.  IP addresses are not sacred
and once online anyone with half a brain could figure it out.  Like
142.165.59.200.
