How is your computer connected to the Internet. DSL? Cable? Straight to the modem or is their a router? Connected to a NIC? When you say you use a username and password, is this the Windows connection utility wanting it or is it that your ISP requires username and password?

I'm afraid I'm just not familiar enough with this type of connection to offer any real help. This might help though...

Good Luck. Sorry I couldn't help more.
