Hi Mike!

What are the results of the following commands (given in a terminal window
(Applications > Assesories > Terminal)):

ifconfig

route

(and if you have wireless in the mix)

iwconfig

If you are in the terminal window you can "drag" the mouse over the results
(hold left click and move the mouse - should mark it as you go) and do an
"Edit > Copy" from the windows drop down menu.  You can then paste this into
an e-mail or text file.

There are also many useful windows in "System > Administration >
Networking".

Good Hunting!

Tod

FWIF from "System > Help > System Documentation" you put the word
"networking" in the search window and find several articles that may well be
useful.  My first guess is that your default gateway is not set (do a "man
route" from the terminal window or search the term in the documentation).
