PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

I have a computer that will not allow me to get onto the
internet at all using a broadband connection. I can get
on with my other computer through my linksys router with
no problem. I have tried 3 different network cards from
3 different manufacturers with the current one being an
Intel Pro 100 card. I cannot get the machine to receive
a valid ip address automatically. I manually input the
ip address, gateway and subnet. After doing this, I can
ping a numerical address anywhere on the net. However, I
still cannot ping a dns address such as
ping /www.yahoo.com

I can only ping a numerical address if I have the tcp/ip
setup manually. If I try to get it to automatically
obtain an ip address, then I cannot even ping anything.
I can ping the localhost just fine even when the ip
address is set to auto obtain.

I have spent more than an hour on the phone with the
intel tech and still it is not working. PLEASE SOMEONE
HELP ME. Thanks!

Chris, this newsgroup supports Microsoft's Broadband Networking hardware and
software only. I suggest you post to one of the general networking
newsgroups by whatever operating system you're running, or contact Linksys
support.
