need help on internet connection setup
Hi, I am a newbie in linux, I just finished installing redhat 9.0 and it was able to detect my VIA VT86c100A Rhine-II PCI (D-link DFE-530TX) lan card. I was also able to create a xDSL connection using the network wizard. Both Ethernet and dsl connection was successfully activated.
When I typed in ipconfig in the terminal, ppp0 contained an ip address mapped by my network provider. However, whenever I try to access the internet (surf using mozilla), I always get an error message that the page can’t be found (for example, in accessing google.com, error message says:
"google.com cannot be found. please check the name and try again.")

Below is the ipconfig result:
