Try explaining that again.

As I understand it, you had a USB modem. Now you have a router and a NIC in
the PC.

If the PC has a NIC, it will have TWO ip addresses (sort of) - 127.0.0.1
(which is ALWAYS localhost - the PC itself) and something else (eg
192.168.0.3). This should NOT be the same as the router or the default
gateway. If you have more than one PC, and have ICS enabled, there are other
considerations. Please post the result of ipconfig /all on all PCs you have
and state which one the SQL server is on.

You could try just referring to the PC consistently either by the same ip
address every time(either) or by name or as localhost.

All my IIS/MSDE installations work as PCNAME, IP address or localhost. If
you mix, you'll find that localhost=127.0.0.1 and PCNAME=real IP address.
That's how it works.
