You are missing the whole point here. Its not about starting any war.
The original post was not asking for a easier to use distro. The
question was very specific related to Fedora.
Its like someone asking how to make tea and you telling him to go
drink mountain dew because its more refreshing!

Ok, so here's the deal : system-config-network (or neat) as a root user
should allow you to edit the properties of your ethernet card. Selecting
the ethernet card, and clicking on edit should give you tabs named
General, Route and Hardware Device. Click the button to Statically
set the IP address and then input the data you have. Save the
configuration settings and quit. Restart the network service. Do a route
- -n to check if the gateway bits are proper. Edit (use your favorite
editor other than OpenOffice.org Writer) the file /etc/resolve.conf to
see if the DNS IPs are properly set. If not set them in the file. Try to
ping the gateway, then ping the DNS and thereon any external site.

Umm.. without actually planning to start a distribution war here, but
the off-the-cuff replies to issues in the form of Dump distribution X
and use Y is kind of self defeating. Consider the situation, Nishant
has from his ISP a static IP, netmask, gateway IPs and nameserver bits.
For any distribution (not limited to Linux) that's more than enough to
get a connection going. It appears from Nishant's mail that the query is
more about what do I have to do next rather than damn this Fedora
thing so sucks, tell me another distribution that can get me on the
internet

On the other hand, you are entitled to your opinion though ;)

 Possibly a route(ing) issue ? Can you see if the route -n output has the
 proper gateway bits ? Else a man route would help you how to add the
 default gateway while ifconfig should allow you to set the other bits
 properly
