Hi there. Thanks for the reply. I tried changing the default route.. still I can ping other stuff on the 192.168.0.* network (the local stuff) and still nothing on the internet, nor 195.44.34.1 (which I know is there and responds to pings!) BAsically, it had no effect.. :-( >I'd also suggest the ethernet HOWTO: > 3.2. Using More than one Ethernet Card per Machine yep.. read that, was trying to do that when I realised that it had found both cards anyway. Maybe because one's a Lance and one's an NE card; I dunno. I did read in the hardware compatibility how-to, however, that the NI6510 is only semi-supported, although hamm seems quite happy with it. I have had it as the only card, linked to the local network instead of the internet, and it worked perfectly. I have also had both cards in place, and swapped over the config, and it worked. So I know the card is basically OK. The only difference between the internet use and the local use is the local network is coax, and the cable modem needs a RJ45. But the (dos based) setup utility tells me it's set to "Auto detect" anyway.. >I bet you could have kept eth0 like it was with some lilo options, but >can't guarantee this since I'm not really an expert in these (both lilo >and multiple ethernets) areas. > >HTH, >Brandon > Thanks again for the response.
