How are you connecting? Is it a wireless connection

try setting ipv6 off in Firefox

In firefox: In firefox address bar - about:config Look for .. network.dns.disableIPv6 and set it to "true".

can't help more without more info about you system and setup

It's just like in Windows:
First you'll have to "install" network card drivers, then configure the settings in "Networking properties". That's all, your network should work.

thx dear but am using wire connection not wireless

so now what should i have to do

[Lost_scrib]

First check the drivers. (Hint: lsmod vs. your network card name + Suse driver for your card)

To know what your Ethernet Controller chip set is at a command prompt ( a Console/Konsole window) type

/sbin/lspci

This will list the PCI devices on your mother/main board
One of those lines will have "Ethernet Controller" in it tells the device.

Is this a notebook netbook or desktop computer?

Are you connecting to the internet by Cable,DSL,or via a router/switch?
Are you connecting to the Internet device by USB or Ethernet cable?

We are good but we do not read minds.
