I think you are right. This is just an internally generated web page from the modem. If you can 'see' it from your OS, it just gives it to you. So it should look the same from both windows and linux, and the information should be identical (well, except for the signal numbers, which change with temperature and load and circuit condition). If you can get into the modem in windows, can you verify that it is set correctly to dhcp mode if there is nothing between it and your computer, or bridging mode if there is a router between it and your computer. It's been so long since I set up the surfboard, I've forgotten what I actually did. After I initially set it up, it just worked. Can you access the web via the modem in windows? If so, the problem is just a configuration issue in linux. Rick's advice about looking at what the modem is offering is a good one. Check the network parameters it has under windows, write them down, and see if you can put them in in linux. Do you have any kind of filters on your linux connections? That is, are you blocking any addresses. How about firefox? Is it blocking any addresses? Do you have proxies in the loop? Is your firewall set to pass this IP? All of these should be OK, but just checking. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
