Please advise on my config

I am hitting some problems and I am not sure if I have reset all
the values properly in the connection icon. Could some kind soul
please check these with what they have please. Thank you.

I have a standalone PC running WinXP (with all hotfixes except SP2
itself) which is connected to an NTL cable modem.

I don't play games on the PC so I don't need any special
protocols. This is what I have.

Thank you in advance if you can compare these with your settings.
