Have you actually ran knoppix yet? There's a 90% chance it will "just work", also in my area, the comcast proxy is not required and you can work just fine without it.

I tried and it said it cant connect to it.

In that case, launch mozilla and edit the preferences to use the proxy.

You're not really saying WHAT is not working right. If you are just need to configure the network, you should read the many faq's written.

As you can see at the top of the message "read the documentation" first.
