Make sure that not only are you getting a correct IP address for your location but also a correct netmask. Also make sure that the default route is correct (route -n to check).

Should be clearer, DHCP doesn't work under 9.3. If I set a static IP (all details correct). I can't send any packets out. Can't ping anything.
DHCP works just fine here (SuSE 9.3). Perhaps the problem is with the DHCP server.
If I install 9.2 everything works fine. If I upgrade to 9.3 (keep settings the same) it breaks the network.
This has happened with 3 different motherboards, 2 with Intel Chipsets and 1 with a VIA chipset.
