An update: For some reason DHCP in FC3, unlike FC1, is not able to assign a correct gateway to eth0. I booted up in Knoppix which also has no problem to configure eth0 with DHCP. Poking around in /etc of Knoppix I found out which gateway was given to eth0. Rebooted in FC3 and added "GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (of course the correct numbers) to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 This is most likely a hack and not a fix. But at least now I can connect to the internet. Any suggestions for a real fix? Thanks! Enrico -- Enrico Indiogine <sindiogine@xxxxxxxx> ha scritto: > Hi Jay! > > 1. My cable modem is not a router.
