I've got SuSE 8.2 on a separate drive on my box. Everything was working great until my Windows partition died and I had to reload it from scratch. Of course, this overwrote my MBR, thus destroying my GRUB setup. Once I got Windows running again, I booted to SuSE using the install CDs and ran YAST2 to reinstall the bootloader stuff just as it was before. That worked great and now my SuSE is running just like before except I cannot connect to the network.
I have a Realtek 8139 NIC card and my PC is connected to a Linksys 4-port Cable/DSL Router. The router is using DHCP on the WAN side and static IPs on the LAN side. On the LAN, it is configured to use 192.168.1.1. The PC (the Realtek card as eth0) is configured to use 192.168.1.10. The DNS is set to 192.168.1.1 and local. I have the gateway set to 192.168.1.1 also.
As I mentioned, using this exact setup I used to be able to connect just fine, but cannot now. I cannot even ping the router (192.168.1.1).
Does anybody have any suggestions on things I should look at?
