not able to connect to internet
I have installed Fedora-8 but have come across few issues:
1. I have installed Fedora but do not get a boot option ie I have both Win XP and Fedora installed on my system but while booting it does not give me any option it simply boots Fedora.How can I create a boot option? 2. I have a DSL connection but not able to connect to the internet.The drivers CD which is provided with the modem does not have any drivers specified for Linux/Fedora.Is there any way I can solve this problem. 3. I even cannot play mp3 songs. Thanks |

Hi Phoxis,
Thanks for the help and my DSL connection has a dynamic IP configuration. Thanks |
Working at an ISP, I have never come across a single instance of someone absolutely needing any particular 3rd-party software to get online. What you may need is the proper PPPoE settings, or maybe just simply to have a dhcp client daemon running. A call to your ISP's tech support should give you whether they use PPPoE or not, and some searching around the forums should tell you how to enable either PPPoE and/or your dhcpc daemon.

Yes now if you are connecting from India then you shoule have BSNL Dataone, Tata, or reliance
I am describing you with graphical setup approach and the CUI. Code:
GRAPHICAL Please also note that then using the CUI Command line way the connection which will be created, the name will be "ppp0" by default to connect do /sbin/ifup ppp0 (this the service provider field actually) Configure the firewall properly. Be shure your LAN Card works by entering command "/sbin/ifconfig" If you can see your network device name for example "eth0" in the list presented and also can see the Hardware MAC Address Then all is ok. If still dollowing thease you cannot connect to the net , please post. |
