==== Q: How do I get my DSL to work that already works on my windows xp in California?  ====

{{delete|out of date}} [[User:Werner P. Schulz|Werner P. Schulz]] 04:40, 13 January 2013 (MST)
A: the following instruction should work:
+
http://howto.htlw16.ac.at/at-highspeed-howto-2.html (German)
+
 
+
Alternate method, by a noob---for Knoppix 5.1.1 I don't claim to be an expert, but this worked for me!  :-) (All these steps may not be necessary, but it worked for me-YMMV.)
+
 
+
* From the Knoppix taskbar icon, -configure networking
+
 
+
netcardconfig
+
-try 'yes' to autoconfigure  (This didn't work for me.  No idea why.)
+
ifconfig
+
 
+
* If the network interface card is correctly configured, you should see BOTH the 127.0.0.1 loopback interface AND a local network address. It takes up about 15 lines. If yes, you're golden, if not..
+
 
+
* From another machine on the network, log on to the router. (Look at the instructions that came with your router for how to do this.) In my Siemens SpeedStream 2614 4 port DSL/Cable Router, the location is 192.168.254.254 and after logging in, the opening page shows the following:
+
 
+
INTERNET Cable/DSL : CONNECTED WAN IP: 74.68.xx.yyy Subnet Mask: 255.255.240.0 Gateway IP: 74.68.ff.ggg DNS: 24.29.www.xyz
+
 
+
In 'Simple Setup' the allowed range of IP addresses is defined.
+
* From your root shell, enter this sequence of commands:
+
 
+
netcardconfig --select 'no' to manually configure the NIC
+
  -enter an unused IP address in the acceptable range for your router
+
  -when asked for the following, enter the information from the router:
+
  -Subnet Mask:  255.255.240.0 
+
(I accepted the default, 255.255.255.0,  and it worked fine. 
+
Like I said, I'm not an expert!)
+
  -Gateway IP: (from your router)  74.68.ff.ggg
+
  -Name server: DNS:  24.29.www.xyz  ('Domain Name Server')
+
ifconfig
+
 
+
to see if network interface card is correctly configured, as above. If not, lather, rinse, repeat. If it is, try
+
 
+
ping 192.168.254.254  (the IP address of the router above)  and
+
ping 192.168.254.xxy  (the IP address of the other machine)
+
(Hit <CTRL> C  to stop the pinging!)
+
 
+
If this works, you're in!
