Here is what you need to do. 1. Click on Computer -> System Configuration -> Networking. Type in your password when prompted. 2. On the Connections tab, select the Ethernet LAN Card (eth0). Click on Properties. 3. Make sure Configuration is set to "Automatic (DHCP)". 4. Tick the "Activate when the computer starts" box. Click OK. Click OK again. You should be able to access the Internet. If not, then send us the following information. 1. Open a terminal and type "ifconfig". Make sure eth0 has an IP address. 2. Still in the terminal, type "route". The default route should point to your router. 3. Type "cat /etc/resolv.conf". It should list the address of your router. -- Later David Kirk ** Beware the dreaded GMail reply-to header if replying to this message **
