I tried with a different IP within the allowed range also with the same result as above. /var/log/messages does not show any warning, only the waiting message from the dhcp client. I did not run 'dmesg'. I have to try it later. > Also, could you ever ping your network with this NIC under Linux? For > example, during the initial install could you download the updates? Yes, I did. The NIC was replaced last Friday with 10.1 already installed. I deleted in Yast the configuration of the old NIC and configured this one the same way as before (plain vanilla DHCP client) and it worked fine in the LAN and wide web until I booted first time into Windows again on Monday evening. When I came back to Linux it did not see the network anymore since. Physical connection is still OK.
