i had some trouble getting dhcp to work with att@home also, if you have a
windows machine, get it running and find out your ip address. you should be
able to just use that static address as mine never changed once in the year i
had it. If your address does constantly change, you can purchase
First, make sure that you're running a DHCP Client and not a DHCP Server.
A client goes looking for an IP, a server hands out IP's. But the IP you need
is handed out by ATT@HOME not by your machine. Secondly, make sure you have
the DNS numbers for ATT's DNS servers properly configured. Make

I plan to just connect a 3com card and load its driver, then config
the netmasks, which reminds me, I wonder how hooking up for
cable-modem is diffrent than ppp such as putting in your
dns and the sub-netmask and all, I think your cable modem
company gives you all these don't they?
Correct me
Hi All,
I am using a cable modem (Comcast @Home in NJ) to connect to the
internet and can not, for the life of me, figure out how to configure it
(correctly) to actually get on the internet. I have found most(?) places
that would configure it. But am not sure of the translation between
What Mandrake are you using?

Thanks for replying Seve, yes they did give a static IP. I have recorded
all my internet settings to include, static IP address, DNS Server Search
Order, Domain Suffix Search Order, Domain, Host, Gateway, Subnet Mask, what
my computer name and workgroup is supposed to be. I can set this up by

Reboot... just kidding. However, that should be it. I've just converted two @Home
winboxes over to linboxes and that's how I got
them to work.
Let me know how it goes or if you can't understand my gibberish.

First of all...read the HOWTO on NIC's and there is also one on Cable
Modemsonce your NIC is correctly setup, all I had to do was choose the
INSTALL NIC in initial startup after INSATLLING, put in the IP (IP, DNS,
Gateway) info, including the account NAME, and presto...it worked...mine for
I just set up my @home service (Oregon) on a new install of MD7.0.
I wanted to use the DHCP server as opposed to setting my networking info
statically. @Home is a bit odd, in that their DHCP server requires an
identifier from the client request in order to get a response.
1) backup /sbin/ifup
Oops,
I'm too tired to be doing this I guess.. :)
change the /sbin/ifup $DEVICE stuff in step 2 with /sbin/dhcpcd
sorry.

Does your cable modem provider require DNS for DHCP communications?
I had a similar problem with RoadRunner, once I got put the DNS info in
/etc/resolv.conf
DHCP worked.
Just a thought.

and control-panel aren't the same...

Thanks Axalon. It worked and now I'm a much happier camper. My final setup
is the dhcp with the hard-coded ip address of the default gateway.
Now I only have to figure out how to set my video to something different

Thanks again,
