Read the NET-3-HOWTO. I had the very same problem and after reading the
howto, fixed it in three commands.
These are the commands that made it work are:
root# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
root# route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0
root# route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0
If your inet connection is through ppp, omit the last one and use a
suitable one for ppp (also in the howto).
