But, wouldn't that mean I'll have to keep my desktop on to have internet on Laptop?
I'm posting more details which might help you. Here are some commands which i ran and their results
Please note here that I have also tried using network manager (added in slackware 14.1) without success. The commands i ran for networkmanager are:
Also, I tried using wicd with similar issue. And, I could not find a way to clone MAC on wicd GUI.
What i think is that if Hathway had not restricted the connection to one pc (i.e., by storing MAC address and giving connection to that PC only), slackware would connect without any problems. But because I have to change my laptop's MAC address to match my other computer's, maybe slackware isn't reading it correctly (i.e., it's trying to connect by default MAC), whereas Puppy Linux did.

Netscape gives me an error "Unable to locate Server" when using a www.something.com address.

dhcpcd-run-hooks
DHCPCD-RUN-HOOKS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual DHCPCD-RUN-HOOKS(8)NAME
dhcpcd-run-hooks -- DHCP client configuration script
DESCRIPTION
dhcpcd-run-hooks is used by dhcpcd(8) to run any system and user defined hook scripts. System hook scripts are found in
/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks and the user defined hooks are /etc/dhcpcd.enter-hook. and /etc/dhcpcd.exit-hook. The default install supplies
hook scripts for configuring /etc/resolv.conf and the hostname. Your distribution may have included other hook scripts to say configure ntp
or ypbind. A test hook is also supplied that simply echos the dhcp variables to the console from DISCOVER message.
Each time dhcpcd-run-hooks is invoked, $interface is set to the interface that dhcpcd is run on and $reason is to the reason why
dhcpcd-run-hooks was invoked. DHCP information to be configured is held in variables starting with the word new_ and old DHCP information to
be removed is held in variables starting with the word old_. dhcpcd can display the full list of variables it knows how about by using the
-V, --variables argument.
Here's a list of reasons why dhcpcd-run-hooks could be invoked:
PREINIT dhcpcd is starting up and any pre-initialisation should be done.
CARRIER dhcpcd has detected the carrier is up. This is generally just a notification and no action need be taken.
INFORM dhcpcd informed a DHCP server about it's address and obtained other configuration details.
BOUND dhcpcd obtained a new lease from a DHCP server.
RENEW dhcpcd renewed it's lease.
REBIND dhcpcd has rebound to a new DHCP server.
REBOOT dhcpcd successfully requested a lease from a DHCP server.
IPV4LL dhcpcd failed to contact any DHCP servers but did obtain an IPV4LL address.
STATIC dhcpcd has been configured with a static configuration which has not been obtained from a DHCP server.
3RDPARTY dhcpcd is monitoring the interface for a 3rd party to give it an IP address.
TIMEOUT dhcpcd failed to contact any DHCP servers but was able to use an old lease.
EXPIRE dhcpcd's lease or state expired and it failed to obtain a new one.
RELEASE dhcpcd's lease was released back to the DHCP server for re-use.
NAK dhcpcd received a NAK from the DHCP server. This should be treated as EXPIRE.
NOCARRIER dhcpcd lost the carrier. The cable may have been unplugged or association to the wireless point lost.
FAIL dhcpcd failed to operate on the interface. This normally happens when dhcpcd does not support the raw interface, which means
it cannot work as a DHCP or ZeroConf client. Static configuration and DHCP INFORM is still allowed.
STOP dhcpcd stopped running on the interface.
DUMP dhcpcd has been asked to dump the last lease for the interface.
TEST dhcpcd received an OFFER from a DHCP server but will not configure the interface. This is primarily used to test the variables
are filled correctly for the script to process them.
ROUTERADVERT dhcpcd has received an IPv6 Router Advertisment, or one has expired.
FILES
When dhcpcd-run-hooks runs, it loads /etc/dhcpcd.enter-hook and any scripts found in /lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks in a lexical order and then
finally /etc/dhcpcd.exit-hook

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
Little validation of DHCP options is done in dhcpcd itself. Instead, it is up to the hooks to handle any validation needed. To this end,
some helper functions are provided, such as valid_domainname as used by the 20-resolv.conf hook to ensure that the hostname is not set to an
invalid value. valid_path is also provided, but is currently unused by a stock hook script.
