Something is terrible wrong with my internet connection, help needed!
Hi all
Today when I want to enter www I couldn't get online.
I'm running debian testing (etch) and it have worked without any
complaints at all ever since I installed it in november last year.
My stationary PC is connected with a D-link router DI-524 via cable.
My wifes laptop (winXP) is connected to the router via a bluetooth adapter.
The laptop couldnt get online too. So I entered (inside the winbrowser
on the laptop)http://192.168.0.2 and hit the button "Renew", then my
wife was airborn, but not my stationary PC (Fujitsu Siemens AMD64x2)
which i bought 5 months ago.
I've tried to plugin the cable, into the laptop directly from the
router and the laptop still connected fine.
All cables are connected correctly.
The only thing that I've done was to install XFCE yesterday, but i
doubt that this have caused my problems.
I have no experience in networking at all, so any help is appreciated!!
I've contacted my local LUG but they couldn't help me.
We have tried to change the mac address but that didn't help either.
The problem was to get an IP-address, but it is impossible!!
I wont believe that it is my netcard that should be the problem.
I'm really lost without my internet connection!
If I cant get online I have to switch to another distro, but that
would make my heart bleed !!!!!
Could somebody please help me, IRC would be fine if possible!

Some info i hope is relevant (probably not in correct order)
