Network/dhcp not working with suse10
 

Hello,

I have a Toshiba Satellite M40 129, with a intel-pro-wireless 2200bg wlan card and a
marvell yukon cable lan card. I'm new to linux and have at first tried out
kubuntu 5.10 preview, but couldn't install the network drivers. I've now migrated
to suse 10, because it has the drivers allready installed. Indeed both cards were recognized by the distro, but I can't connectto my home network, wich is managed by a dsl--wlan-router with one cable lan port (t-sinus 1054 dsl). I have tried to connect vie wlan and cabole lan, but it doesn't work. I have already tried to use dhcp and to use a static IP-adress, i have also tried to shut the one card down while activating the other, but it didn't work. I only got a connection one time via the cable lan and dhcp, at this time everything worked, but the next day after a reboot I couldn't connect. I even can't ping the router, either it says network not reachable or it lists a lot of messages and wont stop till I shut down the terminal.

Thanks for you help

can u paste the error meesage what u got in /var/log/messeges file.
it will be hlp full to diagnose the problem

Thanks
