I haven't had the dubious pleasure of having any association with an ME Network. However, if other versions of Windows are anything to go by my recollection is that Connection Sharing sets up the gateway as 192.168.0.1 with the other machines usually getting their IP from the gateway via dhcp.
If you want to use ifconfig at the command line to bring up your connection you will need to find out and use the appropriate details, including the gateway ip address, and make sure the default route is set up. An easier way would be to simply set up your /etc/network/interfaces file to use dhcp. This assumes, of course, that connection sharing is properly set up on your neighbours network. You should test the connection by pinging first the gateway, then an address on the net, perhaps your isp. Once this works so should your web browser. Good luck. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
