If your settings really are identical, and if TCP/IP works fine under
DHCP, then it should work.

If you do

$ route -n

on your box when configured with "work" IP settings, do you have a good
default gateway? You should see something like:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.0.32  	0.0.0.0         255.255.255.224 U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         192.168.0.33  	0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

for example.

This is the most common problem - no default gateway, or wrong default
gateway. Without output of "route -n" and "ifconfig eth0" I can't tell if
you need to do anything else.
