I have an old actiontech modem/router. I want to run from my modem to the UPS to it and from there to the two computers (I just figured this out ) so the NIC cards of the two computers are protected. Anyways, the network icon indicates there is connection and the info window that tells you if you are connected or disconnected says that I'm connected but:

 $ ping google.com
 ping: unknown host google.com

Could someone tell me how to fix this?
