Blueyonder no longer require that you notify them on your mac address or
register a new one if you change your network card.

Just plug in & go.

Have just bought a new card/PC, rang to let them know as I didn't want to
break my warranty seal and they toldme it's been the case for a few months.

Put it all together. Hey presto,instant connection including knoppix.

Anyone know why Knoppix 3.6 and mandrake 10 can detect and configure my
network card but suse 9.1 can't ? Intel Pro/100 VE network card connecting
to a blueyonder cable modem
