Internet connection problem

Hi everybody.
This is my first post and I have a problem with my Nic card. I am running Fedora and I have my nic card configured but, I can't get a connection to the web.

I have tried the following cml, which tells me I have a connection but, I can't get access

ifconfig -a
route -N
mii-tool -V
iptables -L

Please anybody help :D

You leave out many details. How do you connect to the internet? Are you behind a router? Static or dynamic i.p.? Can you ping?

well... you should try this BTW

iptables -A OUTPUT -p ICMP -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p ICMP -j ACCEPT

That solved my problem, can somebody explain what this statement mean :scratch:

Now off to Wireless Networking setup :D
