I have tried every suggestion posted on this web site, including the
latest by csj and Robert Ruzback.
It seems that I have two choices: give up on linux or buy a new
computer. Since my computer is less than two years old, I do not plan
to buy a new computer soon.
Redhat and Debian on two separate partitions have the same problem,
they can get connected but do not get onto the internet. As far as I
know, they have only two things in common, the same swap partition and
BIOS. Since I had the same trouble with only one of these operating
systems installed, I doubt that it is the swap partition causing my
problem.
Thanks to all of you who tried to help.
Before you leave, what part of the world are you in? It may be that
there's someone just around the corner who could stop by and take a look.
