Hi the wizard does not always get it right. Check ifconfig and make sure the interface is up, you can also see what packets its received and sent. Also check your routing "route -en" Did you start shorewall ?(the firewall,I think 9.0 used Bastille) I'm not sure of the default MDK rules, but worth checking if you did start it if icmp type 8 is allowed. see /etc/shorewall/rules. Also worth checking in resolv.conf that there is a valid DNS server, the default from the wizard is localhost. Apart from that as Kwan said your down to the physical connection to the LAN
