Network connection

Hey guys

I have installed a linksys wireles card in an old IBM
machine. The network has been installed and i get an IP
from the DHCP server, but i cannot browse the internet
and icannot ping the DHCP server, how is that possible?

Kind regards
Flemming Madsen

Maybe the DHCP server doesn't respond to pings. Some don't.

As for the Internet -- you'll have to be more specific about
how it fails. Perhaps you don't have an appropriate gateway defined?
