I didn't look at this file, since I didn't know it exist, so I didn't ping as well since I didn't know the address of the router. Anyway - I am sure there is a DHCP working there, since I was told they connected several Windows machines and they worked fine. What I did is to look and make sure the "network tools" and to see that Ethernet device was enabled and in DHCP automatic IP mode. I am sure I missed something, since it didn't work. On the other hand, it did work at my home before I delivered them the PC. Perhaps the installation process set something that match my home setting and not that place? Can I run "re-installation" just for the network, something like a wizard?
