When I turn the computer off and boot it again, the network is not getting configured, and I can not make the ADSL connection to the network.
So the network devices are not getting started automatically.
What do you have in /etc/sysconfig/network ?
ifconfig shows this:
# ifconfig lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:106 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:106 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:16031 (15.6 Kb) TX bytes:16031 (15.6 Kb)
Try activating your network devices with "ifup":
ifup eth0 ifup dsl0
And let us know how it goes.

I guess this applies to openSUSE as well. I assigned a statical IP address/subnet mask (10.200.1.1 /255.0.0.0) to the network card in yast and after rebooting the card was configured and network connection worked. Is there a drawback of assigning a static IP address? Might it be a bug that prevents network setup when no IP address is set for the card?
