I have an broadband internet connection on eth0. When i was running redhat 8.0, i set it to be configured by DHCP in the during the install and had no problems whatsoever, it detected the connection and set it up for me. No such luck with mandrake 9.1. Compared to the network setup on red-hat i find the mandrake internet configuration tool confusing. I know all my ISP settings but nothing seems to be working for me, i've been trying to fix this for about 7 hours now, someone please help!
