Problem with Ethernet

meigwil · 04-13-2006, 05:08 AM

Hi,

I've got Mandriva SE 2005, alongside WinXP on my machine. I connect to the internet with a Linksys modem/router, connected to the PC with an ethernet cable.

I have had no problems, until I downloaded updates to the distro the other night. Now I cannot connect at all. I have been fiddling with the Network Configuration but without success.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Mei

Could you post the results of the following command? /sbin/ifconfig

It will look like this
