Hi,

I was excited to see the release of the Fedora LiveCD as I'm looking
around at different distributions but for some reason I can't get it to
see my internet connection at all.

If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

NIC:  Cnet PRO200WL PCI (not wireless)
Router:  Linksys RTP300

Output of ifconfig:

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:80:AD:79:95:90
      inet addr: 192.168.15.102  Bcast: 192.168.15.255  Mask: 255.255.255.0
      inet6 addr: fe80::280:adiff:fe79:9590/64  Scope: Link
      UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric: 1
      RX packets: 13  errors: 170  dropped: 0  overruns: 0  frame: 0
      TX packets: 0  errors: 10  dropped: 0  overruns: 0  carrier: 10
      collisions: 0  txqueuelen: 1000
      RX bytes: 2597 (2.5 KiB)  TX bytes: 0  (0.0 b)
      Interrupt: 201  Base address: 0xec00

I noticed that it says UP but not RUNNING.

The Ubuntu LiveCD access the internet just fine so I know it's possible
to MAKE it work.  I just like to see it work before making room for a
full install.

I've used Linux before but it's been ages ago and before I had a NIC so
I'm pretty new to this part.

Any help would be appreciated!
