Another thought. Go to one of the W32 systems, open
up a DOS window and type "ipconfig" and hit <enter>

OK, you lost me there. Please remember to K.I.S.F.S.
[Keep It Simple For Stupid]. *<[:oD I'm still at the
very bottom of the learning curve for Linux. I've
managed to get it installed and some things to
function.

Whats a W32 System? How do you open a DOS window?

Have you visited the web-based configuration interface
in the router, itself? I don't know if it's got one,
but if it does you can verify settings & status for
each client there. RTM (no F) to see if that is an
option.

The router is a Belkin 4-Port Cable/DSL Gateway
Router. In the web based setup all I can find for my
computer is the IP address of the computer assigned by
the router. It says something about changing a switch
and setting permanent address's for each computer.
Think that might help? There is also a Default
Gateway. It seems that I saw something somewhere in
the configuration for a default gateway, can't say I
remember where it was but.............. Found it,
Currently the Yast Default Gateway is 198.168.1.1 but
the router shows a default gateway of 64.217.25.254.
Another thought was that possibly KMail is triggering
the Firewall some way and needs to have an Application
Gateway set.

By the way I turned off the SuSe Firewall.
