    Networking

    Hmm, Im installed SuSE 10.1 today (I got it on a CD from a friend at school)

    And the whole instalation works well, but not the network when I use it.

    It works in... ~10 seconds then it die. then I need to unplug the TP and plug it in, It reconnect and it works in ~10 seconds again...

    My network card:
    # lspci | grep Ethernet
    02:09.0 Ethernet controller: Davicom Semiconductor, Inc. 21x4x DEC-Tulip compatible 10/100 Ethernet (rev 31)


    How to slove it?

    I can ping my network card: 127.0.0.1

    I know the Ip to my default gateway(my router / NAT / ADSL modem), Its 192.168.1.1

    I can't ping it beacuse the netowrk is unreacheble. But if I unplug and plug in the network calbe it's work in ~10 seconds.

    I will try openSuSE 10.2 later today, I downloed it under the night.

    Have you checked /var/log/messages for error messages?

    What does the output of "ifconfig eth0" give you?

    Yes it's an old topic, but I got exactly the same problems today...

    Your inet address should be the same as your IP for your router which you said earlier was 192.168.1.1. This is most likely your problem. You need to tell your computer to lookup your router's IP.

    Check your resolv.conf file. It should be in your /etc folder. There should be a line that says:

    nameserver 192.168.1.1

    Now this is really to solve DNS issues but it may help resolve your issue with not finding the IP address of your router.
