    No PPoe or any special connection protocol? How about router,
    firewall, gateway, etc?

    If nothing special, and I don't think it any different than 8.x, but I
    only have 7.3, this might help.

    Go to Yast2. Networkbasic. network card configuration and enter your
    information. All the information should be given by your ip. You'll
    need ip address (you said was fixed) and a subnet mask (generally
    255.255.255.0, but that depends on you isp or router). You'll also
    enter your dns address('s) in the name server list. And you'll have to
    enter a router/gateway for you isp under routing.

    Then go to adsl (also from 7.3, shouldn't be too much different in 8.x
    , but still under network basics) and enter your user info, password
    etc, and tell it to use the network card you just set up.

    Hope it helps. I'll assume someone much wiser will give you specifics
    for your version shortly. Just giving you something to work with for
    now which should get you there. Unless, of course, the layout of Yast2
    has changed drastically in 8.x.

    Hope it helps,

    will
