make sure that there are no other network configurations active like zeroconfig (though it shouldn't realy matter). To check if the connection is working; open a console window and type: "ping ww.google.com" without the quotes though. Output should look like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] triade]$ ping www.google.com PING www.google.com (216.239.37.99) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 216.239.37.99: icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=149 ms 64 bytes from 216.239.37.99: icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=154 ms 64 bytes from 216.239.37.99: icmp_seq=3 ttl=52 time=156 ms --- www.google.com ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2028ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 149.689/153.444/156.045/2.720 ms [EMAIL PROTECTED] triade]$ If that don't work try pinging the adress directly (in the google case 216.239.37.99) thus: "ping 216.239.37.99" again w/o the quotes:o) If that does give you an output you're connecting OK only not resolving the names. So make sure dhcp is configured in kppp. If it does "zilch" it means there's no connection. -- Good luck, HarM
