OK- here's the lowdown.

It's a matter of having a network interface card that is supported by Linux (most major chipsets are supported) . 99.9% of all home users use DHCP (Dynamic host configuration protocol) to set the IP addresses of PCs connected to the router, so if your NIC is supported, it will make a perfect connection to the netwithout any intervention from you.  My guess is you have a non supported Network card in your PC.

Try running the netcard configuration script from within the menus in DSL.

OK, need the other 7 lines of lspci.

You can also try:

ifconfig

and if you see an "eth0" device listed, then try

netcardconfig

Otherwise, give me the other 7 lines from lspci

netcardconfig  said  that no supported network cards were found.
