    ... without any more info [from you], i'm assuming you've set the
    router to be a DHCP server for the boxes on the backside of the
    router (LAN side). so, in yast->network-devices->network-card,
    set it to obtain an IP using DHCP and you should be ready to go.

    with my d-link router, i 'call up' its configuration page by using
    the http://192.168.0.1/ address in my browser. i used to use a
    linksys - sorry, i've forgetten its address; it might be
    http://192.168.1.1/ ??? check the linksys docs
