if not please summarize more information.

Look in /var/log/messages which will record the attempts made to connect to the Internet when you log in and may give you a clue as to why it is failing.

I tried (How to connect to internet by PPPOE in opensuse -From Bryan)
still nothing, but I opened Kinternet and checked the log, it said pppd[0]: Timeout waiting for PADO packets
I searched in the internet,and found that it is not uncommon, but I couldn’t find a solution.

I try to search any information about this in google.
The problem seems did not has any great solution until now.
Please try to check your ethernet cable and any network equipment and then try it again.

What adsl modem are you using? Often you don’t actually need to configure DSL in your computer at all. The whole pppoe is handled within the modem itself and you just connect your computer to the modem like another ethernet device.

It is usually easier to use a adsl modem with an ethernet connection.

For example, my ethernet modem has a built-in configuration web page. From there, I put in my internet username and password, etc, and it’s done.

SO, some info about your modem, and whether you connect to it by ethernet or usb, will allow others to help you troubleshoot.

If you can communicate with your modem from Suse, then I think that you just need to set the default gateway address.

Go to Yast -> Network Settings -> Routing

In the box named: Default Gateway, enter the IP address for your router. It will be the address you use to configure the modem, and might look like 192.168.0.254 or similar.

Hopefully, this will work :slight_smile:

Hi,

I had a quick look at your router/modem on the dlink web site, and I am pretty sure you do NOT need to set up adsl on your computer (the modem does it all inside).

Go into YAST and DELETE any DSL devices you have set up.

Set up your Ethernet device so it uses automatic (DHCP) settings.

Click on the Routing tab and at Default Gateway, type the IP address of your router (which I think is 10.1.1.1). Whatever address you use to access the routers config page is what you need to type in the Default Gateway in Suse.

You do not need to use Kinternet. Just connect to the modem with Ethernet, and the internet connection should always be there.

Thanks for the last tutorial, it helped half , cause only around the open suse website and Novelle website worked, not even google worked???
But I reinstalled Suse an this time I installed KDE 3.5 and went through manual configuration durin the setup. I loged straight on and know it’s working, only there’s a IP adress conflict through Mum’s computer! Thanks for all the help.
