Anne/Derek, Tnx for your responses.
http://10.0.0.2 works fine with Windows. First time it looks for user name & password. Then we can configure the webstation. I went to configure hardware and selected Ethernet Card. Ran Config Tool-> ADSL Connection->DHCP etc. Mozilla says connection refused for 10.0.0.2 (Strangely this didnt appear for other IPs like 196.39.39.3. It just failed resolve the IP) When I rebooted, the message "bringing up network interface eth0 failed" appears. But when I configure eth0 to Lan, it does not appear. My ethernet card shows the following details. DAVICOM PCI Ethernet 100/10 MBit DM9102 I suspect this is incompatible to the webstation. If so what sort of ethernet card would it accept.

There are a lot of advantages to having them networked, one of which is the ability to check that the network is functioning correctly before worrying about Internet connections. It sounds as though you have a configuration problem, so the problem now is to work out a troubleshooting scheme. First, though, I think that you talked about 10.0.0.2 as the address for the router. Do you know if this is correct? Can you check the configuration in the windows box? In fact, I would say that the first thing to do is to write down all the network configuration screens in the windows box if that is working correctly. You are going to need just the same information to set up the linux one, so that will save you a lot of work and worry.
