can not connect to the internet

[greg m]

at last i have my modem working, it will dial my isp,anddial,and dial, and dial.???????
i`m thinking it may be the firewall , but nothing is in the knoppix books i have.
can anyone think what is causing this.
being new to knoppix, and linux, the learning curve is high (interesting)

thank you greg

I think you have this problem:
if you set Static IP address in "/usr/sbin/netcardconfig" then you can't dial to your ISP.

For example set the DHCP in the menu "K -> KNOPPIX -> Network/Internet -> Network card configuration"
and you can have access to the Internet.

I've check it 08.01.2007 in Kiev, Ukraine.
