I would next assign an ip address by hand, just to eliminate any potential dhcp issues. Use your knowledge of your network to assign an appropriate ip address, netmask, and default route: ifconfig eth1 192.168.xxx.yyy netmask 255.255.255.0 route add default gw 192.168.xxx.zzz eth1 The above illustrative only, of course. Now, ping your gateway address. If successful, you can bring down the interface: ifconfig eth1 down and start playing with: dhclient eth1 PS: If you already have a dhclient running, you may need to kill it first. Janina
