You need an IPv4 address for eth0 which you should probably get by DHCP
from your modem router. You can configure that through your Network
Administration Tool. If that doesn't work, the contents of the file:

/etc/sysconfig/networking/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

(or "ifcfg-eth0" in a nearby directory) should contain the lines:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes

Good luck!
