When I install the driver "insmod eth_driver.ko", then I type ifconfig, I will see a number 192.168.1.x.

But I have problem connecting to the internet. Cannot ping to TMNet 202.188.0.133, will return error destination not reachable. Cannot access any internet sites.

Here's how I connect to internet:

1)
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.x
adsl-start

2)
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.y (y different from x)
adsl-start

Can anyone explain this?
