I also have the same problem.
I have a linksys router.  running off the cd with floppy backup,
and I can't get it to recognize my ethernet card.
This is my first experience with a linux distro. Help! :(

me too...cannot get onto internet and locate computers within the same network in the school.
and I need a password and user name for connection.
but dsl never ask me, instead it said connection refused. Will DSL able to pop a window up and request for it?

Cok33n, I have installed DSL to my laptop, I have a D-Link 614+ router sharing my cable internet to the computers on my home network.

As long as the hardware in your PC is recognized by DSL it should connect you automatically.

I have two network cards I can use in my laptop and both of them work- even though one was made four years before the other one!.

So as long as your router is connected to the internet (i.e. is logged on to the net (in case of some ISPs which require login for adsl (i.e. bigpond in australia))) and your hardware is detected, the router should assign you an ip address with DHCP, and you'll be able to connect through the router to the internet without a worry.

If the router connects the other computers and not your DSLinux computer to the internet then you should check the setting in the router to make sure it's assigning your network card's MAC address an IP (DHCP settings).

Hello, I too have a DLink 614 and have been able to use the net with DSL on every computer I have tried with the auto detection of DSL.  If you have other computers available at home try DSL on these.  It does seem to be a problem with your NIC; but I have never had DSL not recognize one of mine.  Look in the config utility of your router and see if it sees your DSL box.  If it is not there with an asigned IP, your problem is most likely with your DSL box.  Try running DSL w/o restore to see if the auto-detect for the network gives you any probs.
God Bless
