hi, can any one please tell me for my RH 8.0 where and how can i install the drive for my Siemens Speedstream 1020 eathernet adapt.???? I am totally new to Linux so please i request you to write the exact command required to run any file that you tell me to download.... thank you

It so happens that I also have a Siemens PCI 10/100 Ethernet Card (SpeedStream--Residential Series, Model SS1020) in my PC. You don't need any driver for Linux since it will find it the first time you boot up, after installing it... Have you tried installing the card at all? Lawrence

no lawrence, i havent tried to install it, i don have a driver, i am using Verizon DSL (PPOE)..... my PC is connected via router, so what i assume is that my router is acting as a dhcp, when i issue the command netconfig and put a check over the option of get the ip address from dhcp, nothin happens, infact after comming out of that interface and even after restarting, when i issue the same command again and go back there is no check over the option, seems like the change wasnt saved.... i would sincerely appreciate your help thanks

I am using DirecTV DSL. Two computers connect to a NetGear router and the rounter connects to the gateway... I also run dhcpd although I can run static IP if I want! I didn't have any problem with it under RedHat Linux 7.2, Mandrake 9.0, Lycoris, and even Knoppix!!! Could it be because of the Verizon DSL? By the way, did you configure that as root? Lawrence

the problem is that eth0 is showing as inactive and when i try to activate it as root it says no such device..... (seimens speed stream 1020)

Has anyone tried using the speedstream 1020 with the smoothwall firewall? It does not detect it...THanks in advance Ramy

I am using the Siemens Speedstream PCI 10/100 for my computer at home that is running well with windows 98SE for my cable modem. I am planning to upgrade to windows XP, does anyone knows if I will need any new drivers for the card and if yes, where I can downloaded from? Thanks.
