You would have to find out from your ISP what your DNS servers will be and if you will have a static IP or you need to set up DHCP. Even if you have a firewall/router between you and your ISP, once you get your connection working, download all the recommended/security patches for x86 from sunsolve.sun.com to help keep the system safe. Turn off any services you don't need. Search this site (unix.com) for more info.
Try these info docs on Sunsolve for more info on your original question. Network Setup and Modification DNS Support Doc/FAQ Adding network card after install of x86 |

what about hardware compatibility
what about the nic card I have? I know the compatible hardware list for Solaris is much smaller then for windows. And if it is compatible, where do I get the drivers? Sun or compaq??

Not listed as compatible but a 3131 is. You could try the driver and see what happens....
