I am assuming that this is because you do not have a cat5= =20 cable connecting you to the router and you rely on the wireless adapter,=20 which in turn has not been configured? > livecd ~ # ifconfig > eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0D:88:37:FA:22 Do you know which device this MAC address belongs to? lshw should show you. It seems that only one device is configured (eth0). Knowing which device=20 (wired or wireless) is mapped to eth0 would help the whole process. OK you have two adaptors: > 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI > Fast Ethernet (rev 91) > 00:09.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc RTL8139 Ethernet (rev 10) I don't know which one is a wireless and which one is a wired NIC (from a=20 quick google they both look like wired PCI cards to me). > livecd ~ # lsmod > Module Size Used by > sis900 20992 0 > 8139too 22912 0 > mii 7168 2 sis900,8139too Modules have been installed. > livecd ~ # dmesg | grep -i net > Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 7.2.9-k4 > 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.28 This does not have a configured interface. > eth1: SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet at 0xb000, IRQ 22, 00:16:ec:23:af:88. > 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.28 > eth1: SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet at 0xb000, IRQ 22, 00:16:ec:23:af:88. This one does and it is eth1. When you run /sbin/dhcpcd eth1 what do you get? You may also want to try iwconfig eth0, or iwconfig eth1 in case either are= =20 wireless adaptors. If none of your PCI cards are wireless you may want to= =20 modprobe -r 8139too since it is not being recognised anyway, re- modprobe -= v=20 sis900 and check what is shown under ifconfig as a recognised NIC device.
