ok.  thanks for the help.  Biggest problem was that i have the
uthernet card in slot 7 and lan slot was assigned to slot 4.   I need
to change the lan slot to 7 as i have the uthernet card in slot 7.  I
had tried checking dhcp as one of the configurations, but obviously,
with the slot incorrectly set, nothing was going to work.  i will
check the box for dhcp.  if i check the box for dhcp, marinetti is
still asking for an ip address.  should i type in a dummy
address....like 192.168.1.31  or should i go with 0.0.0.0 and dhcp
will have my router assign the ip address on my lan?  either way, as i
understand it, dhcp will have the router assign a valid internal lan
ip address....correct?
