what distro you use?
normally you can achieve this mission via network configuration GUI, almost all distro have this kind of GUI.
By the way, you can check whether your linux detect your network card and LAN via this command:-
sudo mii-tool

What do you mean by "get to know the how to get into networks"?
Are you interested in cracking someone else's network, or what?

Hi unerau,
inside command line type this:-
sudo network-admin
then you able to configure your ip, dns, gateway, and hosts files.
Is it enough for you?
