need help configuring internet in SuSE w/ KDE on an Inspiron 6000


alright, so i run iwconfig in konsole and it shows my router w/ the wrong encryption key. so i type the following line:

iwconfig eth1 key (encrpyt key here)

i then run iwconfig again to make sure that it has the correct key now; and it does.
so i ping google and it tells me unknown server or something. so i do ifup eht1 and ping google again only to get the same message. so i then run iwconfig again and the sys has changed to encrypt key back.

I NEED HELP!
