Hi Swathi: On your OpenSuSe 11 system, please goto the /etc/sysconfig/network/ directory. You should be able to locate a file named 'ifcfg-eth0'. Please verify whether the contents of the file match with the ones shown below. BOOTPROTO='dhcp' BROADCAST='' ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='' IPADDR='' MTU='' NAME='RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+' NETMASK='' NETWORK='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' STARTMODE='auto' USERCONTROL='no' If you find any differences, please copy and paste the contents in your reply. thanks Saifi.
