ifconfig gives a bunch of details for eth0, lo and sit0. not sure what to
look for here?
route -n gives:
Destination  Gateway      Genmask        Flags  Metric  Ref  Use  Iface
192.168.1.0  0.0.0.0      255.255.255.0  U      0       0    0    eth0
0.0.0.0      192.168.1.1  0.0.0.0        UG     0       0    0    eth0

cat /etc/resolve.conf gives:
nameserver 10.1.1.1
