Thanks again - here's my original query: Hi, I've searched the archives and tried some suggestions for similar problems, but without success. Mandrake 9.1 was just installed. I launch KPPP and everything seems to work as the connection is established. However, web browsers fail to load any pages and I can't even ping anything except my own IP that my ISP assigns me dynamically (I've tried IP numbers, not just hostnames, and I've tried both as root and as a regular user).

[newbie] Modem connects OK but apps can't locate hosts
Hi, I've searched the archives and tried some suggestions for similar problems, but without success. Mandrake 9.1 was just installed. I launch KPPP and everything seems to work as the connection is established. However, web browsers fail to load any pages and I can't even ping anything except my own IP that my ISP assigns me dynamically (I've tried IP numbers, not just hostnames, and I've tried both as root and as a regular user).
