Hi Ken,
Got a new problem, I guess it is. I did fine with your instructions, hooked
everything up, and even got to the webpage of the modem. Entered the info
necessary, connected fine (I even heard it dial up and connect), but when I
tried to get to my homepage afterwards (yahoo.com), it couldn't find it.
Anything I tried to navigate to wouldn't come up.
I then went into YaST, network devices, NIC, and started to do stuff with
adding gateway and router numbers and stuff. Now, it won't even come up to
the modem webpage at all. I deleted the NIC, and started fresh and didn't
touch anything...like the very first time...but it still won't come up to the
modem webpage.
Am I supposed to tell the NIC to route or gateway or something? I did an
ifstatus eth0, and got this:
linux:/home/me # ifstatus eth0
eth0 device: Linksys NC100 Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet 10/100
(rev 11)
eth0 configuration: eth-id-00:12:17:50:ea:a0
dhcpcd running
2: eth0:
