Default High speed ISP connection

Finished a computer. Computer tells me the 10/100 lan connection is OK and working fine, but computer wont connect to internet. It did at my house, but won't at neighbors. He just had high speed hooked up. We both use same cable company. and aren' a mile apart. Is it his cable connection or computer?

I've heard that cable modems can be finicky. Glad it was an easy resolution for you. Thanks for getting back to me.
