    It seems to me as its configuration is ok. Basically when I installed mandrake 10.0 all my setting were made automatically and everything worked fine.
    I desperately seek help, otherwise I will have to change to XP or other Linux... Please

    If you didn't specifically setup your network as one of the last steps during installation, then it's not configured. There would have been a screen allowing you to configure monitor, country, keyboard, network, etc...

    Go to MCC (Mandrake Control Center) and select hardware, network. Select new connection and follow the steps in the networking wizard. Hopefully, you'll be up in no time

    Hope that helps!

    This is outcome of isconfig command

    root@localhost kuciak]# ifconfig
    eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0A:E4:03:6C:FF
    inet addr:82.119.104.44 Bcast:255.255.255.255 Mask:255.255.240.0

    UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

    RX bytes:5172 (5.0 Kb) TX bytes:5172 (5.0 Kb)

    Under Internet connection settings DNS servers have been identified as well as domain. Despite this Internet doesn`t work at all. I run dual boot with XP and under XP is everything OK.
    Looking forward to help...
    Thanks

    Do you have your firewall or a proxy enabled?
    What does traceroute tell you?

    Firewall is off and I haven`t done anything with proxy so I expect there are no settings so far.

    Again, what does traceroute tell you? Can you ping outside your network, like ping google or ping 216.239.39.99?
