NightWalker

YEAH! It worked. I don't know whether not it was the router driver update or the disabling of plug and play. Bottom line is I gotta thank ya for checking the topic and helping me. It moved a bit slow but I think it was the bitorrent client that was running on the other computer. THANK YOU!

Ok hold on.

The error message: Device or Resource is busy When I do nocturnes advice: [root@Verizon nightwalker]# ifconfig eth0 down [root@Verizon nightwalker]# ifconfig eth0 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy When I do route -n: [root@Verizon nightwalker]# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface When I do "ifconfig": [root@Verizon nightwalker]# ifconfig lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:82 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:82 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:5172 (5.0 Kb) TX bytes:5172 (5.0 Kb) When I ping the router: [root@Verizon nightwalker]# ping 192.168.0.1 connect: Network is unreachable Hope it helps. Thanks so much for trying to help me.

That didn't work.

Yes I would like to thank him too Well when I reboot and i look at the "veborse" it dosent sorta hang at loading eth0 instead it says that it's busy. Any clue what it is?

I use a GUI in Xp instead of command line. Any way here are the settings. Host Name: psychosis DNS Server: 192.168.0.1 Node Type: Broadcast Adapter Address: 00-10-DC-52-E1-E4 IP Address: 192.168.0.102 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 DHCP Server: 192.168.0.1

Didn't work. Thanks for the effort though.

No workie It won't even let me go into 192.168.0.1 in the internet browser. I think it thinks that 192.168.0.1 is my IP. *sigh*

Took the box then plugged it into the outlet then plugged the ethernet cord into the comp. It worked without having to get drivers or anything. I'm guessing that I'm messing something up with the configuration process. Like the DHCP and other options.

Hi, I successfully got Mandrake installed. Though I seem to have a problem with connecting to the internet. I use a powerline box which is networking that goes through power outlets. I don;t think that the box uses any drivers so I'm guessing its the way I set up the LAN connection. Can any one help me with setting the connection up?
