[LUG] D-link modem router problem

["Mike Tidball" <miketidball@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone.
I recently went over to broadband using a D-link modem router.
I was running SUSE 9.2 at the time and the problem was I couldent connect to 
the online update site.I was'nt too concerned as I was pretty much updated 
and I was waiting for 9.3 to come out.
I have now done a clean install of 9.3 and have the same problem but also 
Firefox and Mozilla wont connect to the internet.The funny thing is 
Conqueror will and then sometimes after using Conqueror Firefox and Mozilla 
will work.
The same goes for Thunderbird,it will only connect sometimes and after using 
Kmail which seems to work.
The online update wont connect even after using Conqueror or Kmail.
I get the message    cannot fetch remote server list possible solution check 
network connections.
Any ideas where to start,I can access 192.168.1.1 the routers setup from 
Firefox.
I have tried turning off the firewall,that did'nt help.
The modem router works fine in windowsxp.The only setup needed for windows 
is to tell it to automatically assighn ip address in the TCP/IP properties.
Is there such a setting in SUSE?
