jaraeez Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hi & welcome, can you open a terminal window & then type su then enter the root (administrator) password, then type ifconfig .. what does it show? Normally if all is well what should happen is that your router hands out an ip address & you should be good to go just like windows I guess. I take it this isn't happening?
