I have also recently installed Slackware Linux and it seems to have automatically set itself up to connect to the internet. I have had a look in the FreeBSD Handbook (not too deeply), but didn't see a section on getting connected. I'm hoping that someone could either give me either a method or a direction in the documentation. Regards Chris Saunders
