Setting the ip address/subnet mask on the interface that connects to your network should be all you have to do (assuming your distro has the modules it needs for your nic). From the command line, you could try using "ifconfig", or if you are using something like kde, you could use KNetworkConf.

use 'yast' --> network devices --> network card
is your 'switch' a router, or do you use dialup internet in windows ? please provide some more info... |
You didn't provide detailed infos about your NW topology.
I'm guessing ... you have a router which is connected to w WIN box and to a Linux box. Then you should be able to connet to the internet with WIN and LIN ;-) |
