Damn XBOX Live connection

OK, I've done something hideous to my Live connection and I can't seem to get it back on track. First, a bit about my setup:
My mobo's got two built-in network chipsets, so one of them connects to the modem and the other connects to the 360. This gives me two network settings in XP: one for the general internet/PC, and one for the 360.
The PC-to-modem connection has always been configured with an automatic IP, and it works just fine (hence my being able to post this). The PC-to-360 connection was once configured manually, but it's now also configured automatically. I may have done this accidentally and lost the IP/DNS information that I was using.
The 360 can no longer connect to the internet at all, naturally. Running the network test fails on the first step every time. I've tried a few manual settings, but it's been so long since I've set all this up that I can't remember which information I need.
Does anyone have a clue as to find out which manual IP/DNS/etc. information I would need to plunk into the thing to get it to connect? Or is there a better way to do this and still have both devices able to connect to the internet simultaneously?
