Having confirmed that my dark grey modem is showing both lights green when I boot Suse I can also report the following responses to helpful suggestions.
1 There is an icon in the system tray resembling a 2-pin plug with curved cable. The tool tip text is 'plugged in'. 2 If I try to open Firefox I get the message 'www.novell.com could not be found'. 3 ping 68.142.226.54 generates the message 'network is unreachable'. 4 /var/log/messages for this evening has the following lines: May 9 20:03:23 linux syslog-ng[4588]: syslog-ng version 1.6.8 starting May 9 20:03:29 linux kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
