Okay. What brand/model of Ethernet card do you have?

Use the command route add default xx.yy.zz.qq where xx.yy.zz.qq is the IP address of your gateway. If you don't know what your gateway is then ask your network administrator. > I remember that I have config a gateway when I config the Network > Interface , I am not sure wether Mr mark refers to this ?
