do # ifconfig
this will tell you the IP and the Gateway of your devise your Devise should be eth0 and all the information you fill it up before you should get it displayed.
if there's no eth0 or eth1 that's mean your network card is down so you should do the commond # ifup eth0
this will bring up the devise if it give you an error that's mean your network card is not properly installed (reinstall the module or fresh install)
and don't forget to check your DNS IP
good luck

I am having problems with configuring my network and internet connection.
My linux pc is part of a windows network where a cable modem is connected to
a broadband router for internet connection.
As configuration parameters in the network and internet option of Mandrake
control center:
Lan connection, automatic IP, the gateway ip address of the router and the
http proxy of the provider.
Maybe somebody can help me because it isn't working.
