Asus P5N32E-SLI No internet

hi all

I’m new at this linux OS so please bear with me, I install openSUSE 11 DVD but I’m unable to connect to the internet (any webpage). I search for other related posts but couldnt find anything, I went into Yast>Network Devices>Network Settings. but I got the following message.
openSUSE-11.0-update: Valid metadata not found at specified url (s).

Any ideas?

Thanks
Sin

anybody, I’m new at this and have no idea what I need to do…:’(

OK I was researching and manage to do and get this info below. Im using a linksys wire router but I can get internet when I boot in windows.

I tried disabling IPV6 but did not work.

The net card is reconized as: MCP55 Ethernet (etho)
I have an integrated Nvidia Nforce Network Controller.

Thanks for the help…:slight_smile:

I guess no one knows about this issue. ohh well I will have to uninstall opensuse then cant find a solution for this

Hi sini,

I have the same motherboard and the same problem. Did you ever find a solution to this or did you abandon openSUSE ?

I had the same problem on ubuntu as well. I’m stumped.:’(
