I get internet through my friends computer, a Win98 machine with direcpc (satelite internet) and Sygate (sort of a proxy software for 9x). I set it up on Redhat 6.0 and other versions of linux and it works fine. But it gives me "Network is unreachable" error when I try to ping and outside IP with Redhat 6.1. My network card is detected and setup at startup, I can ping his computer, I setup all settings during graphical install, and double checked them in linuxconf, after install. They work with RH 6.0, so why not with RH 6.1?
Is your default route set?
Haven't heard back, assume problem was default route.
