Tim Maybe I am mistaken about using PPPoE, but that is what my router manual suggests should be my settings. I believe that demudi is not even able to see the router, which is connected via one of the network ports. How can I check to see what the other distros are doing?

I doubt this is a bug in demudi, I'm fairly sure the network configuration tools are no different to those in Debian or Ubuntu. I don't understand why you're using either PPPoE or PPPoA, Bal, you would use these for connecting directly to a modem, surely? Have a look and check how the other distros are doing it - I would expect them to talk directly to the router via a straightforward network connection. If you really have to use PPP for this, then it could be complicated to configure. cheers, tim hall /|\ __________ NOD32 1.1431 (20060305) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com ___________________________________________________________ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
