Are you sure this device is eth1 and not eth0? I recently setup a laptop with an ipw2200 (i.e. not the card you have, which is the 2100) where for whatever reason it was appearing as eth0. If i was you I'd try configuring using system-config-network, a gui configuration tool which mostly gives good results. [You could also look at NetworkManager - you need to start it in system-config-services to have it running. I have only used this with Gnome though, I am not sure if it works inside KDE - others on the list, or the list archives may know.] HTH Jonathan
