Re: internet w/ dhcpcd
Hi,
I've read up this thread, and i have a Q that needs an A. How did your nic
get its ip? did you enter it6 by hand or did it get it using dhcp? If the
latter is the case you can rule out hardware problems, modele problems, ip
stack problems and many many more potentian caveats.
btw, sorry for busting in on the tread....
Yours,
Nico de Haer
