I setup my cable modem in l-m with no problem.  I am new to linux but found
I only had to goto linuxconf on kde desktop (I'm sure there are more ways to
skin that cat)  and set:
1. basic host information-  my hostname, ip address and netmask given to me
by @home
2. dns- primary and secondary dns server supplied by @home
3. gateway- gateway ip given to me by @home

Maybe I just got lucky and it all worked for me, but I have never had any
problems (aside from getting my nic to work ;))

It depends on your cable provider, if they give you the info Matt reffered to 
then setup his way, if they didn't then they probly use dhcp, just use the 
dhcp option in linuxconfig networking. don't change anything else dhcp will 
do the rest only thing you need to configure is your nic.
