Need a little more information about how are you connecting:
What kind of hardware are you using to connect to the internet?A modem/router/usb-wifi or 3g-stick?
Where do you put internet's user&password?

Hi sahadat, when you say adsl modem I guess you're talking about a usb
one as an ethernet one should work quite straight.
If that is the case, post here vendor/model so I can take a further
look.Also Unplug and plug your modem, then open a terminal, run "dmesg"
without quotes and paste here the 10 (or so) last lines of output,It
should told us if the device is being recognized.

Can you help with this problem?
