I had working internet in IE5. You have to walk through the internet connection setup for LAN, but it works.

There's internet in the windows 2000 setup.

I tried pinging google.com from cmd and it worked, both on Firefox and Chrome. Didn't try browsing the web though. Maybe the VPN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15278430) is overloaded or blocks that somehow?

You need to configure DNS!
