Can't Access Internet In Fedora! Help!

Well, is the router set to DHCP?

Anyways, run ifconfig as root and report back the output.

The router is set to DHCP and I don't exactly know what you mean by "ifconfig", where exactly do I do this? Please go easy on me, remember, I'm new to linux.

I try what you suggested, but it didn't work ... terminal screen said ... "bash: ifconfig: command not found".

"That's odd FC3 didn't automatically see the DHCP server. Are you sure you configured FC3 for DHCP?"

That's what I'm worried about, but I remember enabling the DHCP setting for "eth0". I kind of rushed through the whole install process, but from what I read I could configure it once it was installed, correct?

Well let me know what you think and what else I can try.

BTW thanks for your help Scooped, I appreciate it.

Well most importantly are you root? Only root can run those commands. Aside from that try "/sbin/ifconfig eth0" and follow it up with "dhclient eth0"

or maybe "/sbin/dhclient eth0"

Whichever works

I was finally able to get the terminal commands working, not sure why they didn't work earlier. I typed "/sbin/ifconfig eth0" and "dhclient eth0". The output said the IP is bound to "192.168.1.8", which is the IP that I gave the windozzze OS that was on the computer before I installed Linux.

The only other thing I can think of is resetting my router and see if that works. If it doesn't, then I'm out of ideas.

Also, I tryed to save the output of the terminal to the txt editor in linux and then save it to a floppy so I could post it on this forum but it didn't work, why is that?

Anything else I can try.

The IP is bound to your ethernet cards MAC address. Not your OS.

Try pinging the router. In the terminal you type Also run /sbin/route

Look for the line with default. It should have the same address as you used to ping the router somewhere on that line.
