Hi littledrop
I assume you are looking for a GUI type tool but there are two command line interface tools that can be used namely <ifconfig> and <route>. I have used invocations such as <ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.100> to set up a 192.168.1.100 NIC card and also used an invocation such as <route add default gw 192.168.1.1> (braces not required, used to enclose the example only) as my gateway (router IP4 address). Most speed settings etc. will be auto-negotiated, once you get the path.
I do not use Slackware but these tools are available under all distros. Hope this may help in some way. Cheers...
Robert
