No internet after online update under Suse 9.3

Hi

I did an online update under Suse 9.3 and then I can't use internet
afterward. I checked my network card (RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+) under Yast,
but it is still configured. Here is the info from iwconfig. Please help.
Also my Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG is not working. Some advise on the
wirelss is also appreciated. Thank you ahead! I am a newbie to Linux.

Now I could be wrong here but if you have been using the wireless module
that is in 10 you might have to re-compile it again as it sounds like
you got a new kernel in the update.

Just need to make sure your source is the same version as the running
kernel and :


cd /usr/src/linux
make cloneconfig
make prepare-all

cd ../kernel-modules/ipw/
make install


That should get the modules back up to the right version, the above
commands are relative to my SuSE 10 here so you had better check that
they correspond to your system as well, also have a quick read of the
INSTALL file in the ipw dir just incase it is an earlier version than
mine and needs more to be done.

What do you get for the wired card using ifconfig?

Hi Mark

My kernel is 2.6.11.4-21.9-default and my ifconfig is attached below.

Thank you again!
