yes i have same problem and i tried to connect to the internet ethernet connection and usb connection same cable modem it did not work please help!!
Hi all,
I've read some posts on this forum about internet connection problems when trying to use a USB Cable Modem with Knoppix 3.8.1. I have been having similar problems, but have found a solution that works for me.
I had no problems with my connection when I was using Knoppix 3.7 (using either the 2.4 or 2.6 kernels) but could not connect when using Knoppix 3.8.1. What I found was that Knoppix 3.7 detected an ethernet device (eth0) whereas Knoppix 3.8.1 did not. I don't understand a great deal about hardware detection in initialisation of Knoppix, so I don't know why this is.
Under Knoppix 3.8.1 I ran the PPPOE connection wizard from KNOPPIX -> Network/Internet in KDE, which stated that no ethernet devices could be found and I should run the modconf script. Here, I added the module "usbnet" from the /kernel/drivers/usb/net catagory. eth0 was then detected by Knoppix, and it ran same automatic tests which ended up in providing a brief error message. I suspected at this stage that a DHCP broadcast would be necessary in order to grab an IP for my USB modem. Running KNOPPIX -> Network/Internet -> Network card configuration provided an option to do a USB broadcast on eth0. After doing this, I had a working connection (this post under Knoppix 3.8.1 being the proof! ).
I hope that's of some use to users who have had trouble. If anyone can suggest a more elegant way of doing this (via a cheat code?) during initialisation then that would be of interest to me!
Cheers.
