Can't connect to internet

Hi.
I am totally new to linux. I just installed slackware yesterday.
My problem is that I can't connect to the internet. I got no clue what do to next.

I hope someone will be able to help me out.

Do you think it would be a good idea if you told us how you connect (i.e. what kind of connection you have)?

How are you trying to get online? Dialup modem, broadband, existing network? Is there a router, or are you directly connected to the WAN?

Have you run "netconfig"?
