Network Connection Problem

I am using SUSE Linux 10, I am haveing a problem with it not keeping the network connection on all the time. I can click on it to get it started and it pulls a ip off the dhcp server it drops it just as fast, I am at a loss as to what the problem is. Any Ideas?

Did you get any error message?

You could verify your dhclient.conf (if dhclient is what you're running) and check your syslog messages. If nothing is there you could run dhclient with the "-d" flag so it stays in the foreground and spits out messages as it goes. If they don't mean anything to you you could run "dhclient -d -cf /etc/yourdhclient.conf >/tmp/dhlog 2>&1" and post the contents of /tmp/dhlog here.

No errors are shown. The only reason I found out about it was because we were trying to get all the ip routes setup and no one could ping me.
