problem with network

[João Gomes]

Sorry, I was so stressed that don'i even saw what I was writting.

The machine is a HP laptop, centrino.
I'm connecting with cable to a network in a student residence.
It connects directly to the internet.
The network has a DHCP server, and I receive the IP address by DHCP.
Yes, I think it has a router.
In windows everything works fine, but I need the Linux to work.
I tried Fedora and Suse. Both give me the same error. In Mandriva 2005 it
works well, but I don't like mandriva very much.

Thank you for the help.
