Hi, I cant give you very detailed instructions but the first thing to look for is to see if Linux is actually reconizing you network card( I assume that it is in you computer!) . When linex boots look for a device "eth0" if this appears as linux is booting and it says it's OK , then you just need to setup you software. If not you need to get linus to recognize you network card. Linux does not work with all network cards, you need to find out what card you have add look of specific instruction for that card. I had to use a DOS utility with my netgear nic to setup the card so linux could use it. Read the two links below. I found both very useful. http://linux.com/howto/Ethernet-HOWTO-5.html http://www.geeks404.com/pc_mech/building/ea201-linux.shtml Hope this helps.
