On this local lan, the laptop only gets through the router sometimes. And that because I go Yast - network services - routing table - expert config. Destination 192.168.1.107 Gateway 192.168.1.1 Network 255.255.255.0 Device eth0 That might work fine until I close and reopen Konqueror.-- nothing. Now if I blank out the above it might be ok again untill the browser is recycled off and on. I got that from google, but need help to stabilize this. .. Thanks John ~
