Jose, Check to see if NetworkManager and NetworkManager dispatcher are running # chkconfig NetworkManager --list if they are on, turn them off by doing a # service NetworkManager off and turn it off from starting completely do a # chkconfig NetworkManager off then look for your settings ie, which DNS(Domain Name Servers) you need for your ISP, and put them into your /etc/resolv.conf an example would be cat /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 19.190.128.1 nameserver 19.195.128.1 Also turn off eth0 connection by doing a # ifconfig eth0 down then try to connect again.

Is there any settings I have to provide to Firefox? What should I do? Thanks a lot.
