 |
|
| Whenever I open up mozilla or any other internet application I cannot connect to the web or any other service. My eht0 comes up okay during boot. The strange thing is all I have to do to get everything working again is log into my router. I don't have to change any settings, just log in. Then I can go to gentoo.org or whatever. Anyone heard of this before? |

There are definitely too many kinds of routers out there to give you any answer without knowing what kind of router you use, so maybe you should be a little more specific about your hardware...

Usually that helps... I have a Linksys wireless access point router model number BEFW11S4. I have dhcp configured for my two pc's. The one I am on is connected via ethernet cable. The other computer connect via wireless nic works fine. |

| This was actually a very minor problem with an obvious solution. After realizing one of my recently installed apps had update /etc/conf.d/net I easily changed my my net settings to use dhcp. |
