Assuming that your settings were correct (they should have been since you were connected fine before this incident) don't start changing them to try to reconnect. You can instead try troubleshooting your connection/DNS servers (are they listed in your /etc/resolv.conf if you're using a modem, or is your gateway listed there if you are using a router). What errors does '/etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart' show? -- Regards, Mick
