Ethernet not OK on P4G8X Deluxe ?

Thanks for your answer, Homer. In fact - as far as I understand - my ISP
checks on an identification code which is embedded in the ADSL modem.
Anyway, I sometimes use this same modem on my notebook (Gateway Solo 9500)
without any problem.

But I would like to try what you suggest, if you could explain me exactely
what to do. What do you mean wirh "release" ?

If you are on Win XP, open a dos command prompt, (Start, All Programs,
Accessories, Command Prompt), then type in ipconfig /? to see a list of
options, release is one of them. In Win 98 I think it's Start, Run,
winipconfig.

Thank you, LeeBos, for your assistance. Unfortunately, releasing did not
change anything.

Do you remember that, almost one year ago, we had a lot of discussions about
the P4G8X Deluxe ?

Well, I just released as you told me, but that did non change anything. When
I use the Broadcom Ethernet, Internet Explorer is unable to open a WEB page
such as <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.google.com." target="_blank">www.google.com.</a> But what seems very strange is the fact, that a ping
on <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">www.google.com</a> works ! What do you think about that ?

Hi Steen, yes I do.
The Broadcom in my P4G8X works fine, but I'm going thru a broadband router
before the cable modem. If I connect directly to the cable modem I must power
cycle the cable modem each time I change PC's otherwise my ISP remembers the
mac address and will not talk to me. Might this work with your DSL?

Hi Lee, I just tried to connect the ADSL modem to the Broadcom connector,
and reinitialized the modem (with a power off/power on). This did not change
anything : there is still no Internet connection. Well, this is not that
important, since I can still use the 3Com, but I would like to understand
what happens.
