Hi All

I installed yestarday suse with KDE and I could not connect to internet.

Well, I could only tell you what I have to do for a new connection with my ADSL ethernet modem router. I have a Aztech 4 port router which is connected with my ethernett card. From the manual of the maker of the Router I learned

My advice, look into the manual for the address of your router. In Mozilla/Firefox I enter this address and after giving my username for the router as admin and leave the password blank (seems the standard setting for routers) I am then receiving a site from my router which has to be filled in with username for your ISP and the password and than such details as the protocol to be used (in my case PPPoA VC-Mux) and the values of VPI and VCI. These details you should get from your provider. After inserting these details I have to press a connect button in order to see my ADSL connection coming up. In case of a loss of the ADSL connection I go to the same site and reconnect there.

Hope that this helps you with your ADSL setup.

Sebastian. Is this your modem? http://www.freecall-uk.co.uk/adslexample/morerouter.htm If so then it certainly should be supported by Linux. I would say that it will be a case of entering the correct address for the modem/router in Firefox or Konqueror (or whichever is your favoured browser) and entering your details as given by your ISP. I can't be any more specific as the layout will be a bit different to mine (D Link DSL 504) and other peoples. There should be similarities though. Please let us know how you progress. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Take care.
