Welcome to LQ

What have you tired, and what didn't work?
Some more info would be helpful.

jag2000 · 08-02-2010, 06:07 PM

can you post an ifconfig. are you using dhcp or a static ip?
please provide more info so we can help you.

And, if that is the case, what setup did you use to post your statement :-)

@von Stalhein: Good point.

What type of setup are you looking for? Wired or wireless??? Is this a brand new system, was it online before if it isn't? Lots of questions to be answered, but as stated earlier, posting the output from ifconfig is a good way for anyone to try and help you resolve the problem.

Go to System>Preferences>Network connections and you will be able to setup whatever connection you want. I have Huawei Modem, LAN and wireless network working on My Lucid
