mandrake network problem

i just installed mandrake 9.2, and it detects my card, dhcp seems to be
working, ip and gateways and everything is there, but i have no connection.
i have a router setup with my cable modem hooked to it and a couple of
computers. redhat and XP both detect/install everything at installation and
i dont ahve to do a thing, it just works. not so lucky with mandrake.
anybody else have this problem or any ideas?

net etiquette/Newsgroup tip:

If you want to send the same message to more than one NG, CROSSPOST!

Some will argue that you not even crosspost do to the amount/type
of newsgroups that we have today.

As an example to post to "comp.os.linux.security", and
"comp.os.linux.hardware", use the following Newsgroups line:
Newsgroups: comp.os.linux.security,comp.os.linux.hardware

See http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/xpost.html

You conserve resources on NNTP servers, and other readers
see the follow up answers and do not have to provide the same answer.
It makes it much harder to keep track of a discussion.
Also, once a reader has "read" a message in one group, they do
not have to see it again unless someone has provided a follow up.

Please answer questions given in the other newgroup you posted to.
