Is your cable modem an ethernet or USB one? If the former, try installing a dhcp daemon (there's a few, dhcpcd, pump...). Also see if your network card is setup - what chipset is it, does it appear on /sbin/ifconfig output? -- Jon Dowland http://jon.dowland.name/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
