Hi, im new to the Opensuse community and i am hoping to learn more. I have never used Linux on any real scale so please be tender with me.
I have just installed openSUSE-11.1-DVD-x86_64.
To be honest, i can understand some of the outputs but not them all. i have tried multiple guides but to no avail. So far i have installed the NIC, my router (orange livebox) is connected to ethernet port. i set everything to DHCP, the DHCP works on the router.
But i cant seem to get on to the internet. i can get an ip address assigned but i cant view webpages, get a direct connection to the routers interface. i tried pinging but the output is wierd and it seems to ping repetitively.
Here are the outputs from some commands because i know you pros understand them like english :P.
I read something about attansic NICs. that happens to be what i am using but there wasnt a solution posted. PLEASE HELP A NOOB!
