4.1.4 Checklist Cable Modem
Accessing the Internet through the TV cable requires a cable modem. Such a modem
is connected to the computer via ethernet cable. Therefore it is only necessary to
congure your network card accordingly. For details, refer to Section “Cable Modem”
(Chapter 21, Basic Networking, ↑Reference).
4.2 Internet Connection Via Network
If your machine is part of a network which is already connected to the Internet, it is
very easy to gain Internet access (just congure your network card and connect your
machine to the existing network and you are done). This not only applies to large
company networks, but to small home networks as well. Even if the machine you are
installing is only connected to a router (e.g. a DSL router) it is already part of a net-
work. It is irrelevant whether you are using a wireless network adapter or a wired
one.
NOTE: Routing and Name Services
In the following it is assumed that the network is connected to the Internet and
provides routing and name services. In case these services are provided by a
router, make sure the router is congured correctly before setting up the client.
4.2.1 Checklist Network
If your network provides DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) check the ap-
propriate check box when setting up the network card and you are done (all param-
eters needed will be provided by the DHCP server).
If DHCP is not available, ask your network administrator for the following details:
• Hostname
• Name server
• Gateway
For conguration details for wired network cards, refer to Section “Conguring the
Network Card with YaST” (Chapter 21, Basic Networking, ↑Reference), for wireless
network cards see Section “Conguration with YaST” (Chapter 32, Wireless LAN,
↑Reference).
