Hi Jay: If I have now only eth0 active the internet connection works. However, if I activate eth1 (LAN NIC) it does not anymore. The settings for eth1 are: IP: 10.0.0.1 Mask: 255.0.0.0 Gateway: 10.0.0.50 The only other PC on the LAN has IP 10.0.0.50 With FC1 it all worked perfectly. Neither did I have to worry about entering a gateway for eth0. I wonder what is wrong. Thanks for your help.
