Hey, I'm new to Fedora. I just got a new NIC card (10/100Maps fast Ethevnet Adapter) and I was wondering how I'd configure it so I can get online.
I'm running FC2 on my computer.
Any advice?
either way is fine with me lol.
whatevers easiest.
i'll try the command line first and if i cant get it, i'll let you know, and if u dont mind hopefully you could help me with that. =]
thanks
You should be able to select the NIC, then hit enter to allow you to set the IP, etc
Here's what I see on one of my boxes
