Sounds like you must have a router connected to a "modem" which "hosts" your LAN. If not, more info needed. On this machine (G4MDD/10.4.11) When clicking on "Built-in Ethernet" the "button" turns green. Clicking the "Configure" button at the bottom of the pane opens several options. I choose "Using DHCP" and the router assigns an IP (in the 192.168.1.1XX range). If this is not happening for you, I suspect the settings in the router.
