Hi, I've always been using Windows in the past, but now that I'm now using linux, I have to do the same things, such as accessing the Internet.
I have the name of the ISP(in Windows), and the password.In Windows, I just need to create an icon on the desktop, and a mere click makes the access. But now in opensuse, I can simply choose wired connection but can't configure the relative information such as ISP and password. At school, I don't need to type in the information for it's already been done, but now at home, it seems impossible.
How can I access the Internet without being able to configure it? Are there any commands as a substitute,for in ubuntu, I remember, commands for Internet are essential.
By the way, I'm using Vista now so as to use the Internet for help.

Try typing the comamand `dhcpcd` as root. If you have a dhcp server running (a router usually acts as a dhcp server), your computer should be able to connect to the router.

You should post more relavent information about what kind of internet access you have. It sounds like DSL. Are you connected directly to a modem, or is there a router in between. If you have a NAT router, then the router will do the dialing for you. If not, run the dsl configuration in YaST2. ( YaST2 -> Network Devices -> DSL ). It has a place for you to enter your username and password and the provider information. Also look in your installation disk's /docu/ directory. There is a pdf manual with instructions.

If you have a DSL Router, then configure your NIC for dhcp in the Yast2 -> Network Devices -> Network Card configuration.

After rereading your original post, I realized that you might be a poor soul with POTS dialup.
There is a YaST2 -> Network Devices -> Modem configuration. You may have a problem if you have a winmodem that SuSE doesn't recognize. They are really software modems, relying on windows to perform certain functions instead of doing these functions themselves.
