Like this:

I could connect the cable modem directly to the knoppix computer and try your commands again if you want.
You should be able to keep the router in the circuit. You'll want to , as that will be the final way you'll run anyway. There is certainly no reason why the router should not stay in the configuration.

One problem from a previous posting is that your own IP address seems to be 192.168.0.1. That is likely the IP address of your router (unless you've changed it) and can't be your address too. If it's getting set this way by an automatic Netcardconfig the I would suggest booting again from CD and seeing what your current ifconfig is, the booting the hd install again, doing the steps James gave you including the netcardconfig. If you are doing an "automatic" netcardconfig and still get the 192.168.0.1 setting, do a netcardconfig and take the manual setting option and force the IP address o be what it was when you booted from CD (and maake the other settings too). Does that help? It seems like your hard disk install is forcing the wrong IP address, but why I have no idea.
