In Windows...click the START button, choose RUN, type in "winipcfg" <--
without quotes...choose MORE INFO, and there are all your IP/DNS/etc
there...write them down, then in Linux setup NIC/DHCP (not sure myself as my
cable IP is static, and I get by without using DHCP), read the HOWTO's, and
get more confused...then ask for additional help in here...:)

detects this and sets it up by itself and this is what the provider supports.
Is there a way to have Linux do the same because they won't give me any
information such as host address, ip address ect. because they don't support
Linux.
