If Win XP didn't install the network drivers for your wireless card OR your networking card (looks like a larger phone jack) then you will have to turn it off and open it up to see what the product is you need drivers for.
My first question usually is: Is it plugged in?

Plug the little phone looking like cable that comes out of your modem into the slot in the thinkpad that it will fit in. Kill the power to the cable modem and the computer. Replug in the cable modem, give it a good 2 -3 minutes to boot up, then turn on the computer.

Is it plugged in as using a Ethernet cable into the router or does it have charge

Unplug the cable modem and router. Reboot them by first allowing the cable modem to fully reboot, then plug in the router, then finally start the lap top.
