Networking :: networking devices



I installed DSL on a USB key and it seems to work fine.  the only problem is when i try and connect to the internet i'm not able to.  If I run ifconfig the only output i get is:
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
and its details.

is there something i have to do to get eth1 up and running?

thanks!
How is your computer set up to get internet?

Please describe your connection type,
and if applicable, modem model/type, and network card chipset/model.
ok, well, its on a USB key so i was hoping to use it on a number of different machines.  One of the machines i'm trying to use it with has both an ethernet card and a internal wireless card.  Heres the ifconfig output for that machine when i'm running Ubuntu:

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:12:F0:A2:38:3A

when i'm running DSL i only get the last device (lo)
thanks for the speedy reply, i hope this is the info you need
What happened to eth0 ?
DHCP or Static?

If DHCP then...
As root does  pump -i eth1 help ?
You may also be missing a module (driver in winspeak) for the network card. You can run lspci to find which card you have (assuming it is a pci card) and then lsmod to see if the correct module for the card is loaded. If it's not loaded, use modprobe to load the module, and finally you can try pump if you're using DHCP.
