Did you run "cmd.exe"? Really?

Definitely, not. You should configure the network with DHCP. It will 
find the correct settings automatically.

1. Login as root
2. Start sysinstall
3. Go to Configure/Networking/Interfaces
4. Select your NIC card
5. When it asks to configure with IPv6, say "NO"
6. When it asks to configure with DHCP, say "YES"

That's all.
