Hi, Thanks for the speedy reply, Bernd, and everyone else who wrote back. It appears, on closer inspection, that the problem lies on the ISP end. (Linksys indicated an internet connection, but there was no IP address assigned in its firmware reports.) I found (less than a week after installation) that even directly hooking up cable did not work. On top of that, my wife (who watches much more television than I do) complained of "snow" on cable. They'll send someone out to troubleshoot/repair the cable Tuesday next. The moral (I hope) is: "Always do your 'idiot checks' first!" Nevertheless, it was reassuring to learn that things were probably OK on my end as everything people suggested I check on (e.g., nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf) was there. Thanks again! Steve
Dump your cards configs, and set up your card from scratch using Yast! I say this only because I have experienced countless hours and days of pain trying to tweak something that is really simple.
If you can figure it out with this, great! If you need details on it let me know. I have a Linksys RT31P2 (wired with phone ports) and a Linksys WRT54G (wireless) that is connected to the wired router. Both are on different networks (15.1, 1.1), and both router are set up by default to serve DHCP for the internet and the network. I also have setup in the past both eth and wlan cards on these routers.
What I'm telling you is the simplest and fastest way to get it done. You can tweak it later if you need to.
Bernd
