3c900 Installation Problem

Hi,

I apologize if this is not the right mailing list to send this question to,
but if any you have a minute to look at this problem, I will be very
thankful.

I am having problems configuring my 3c900 card on Red Hat Linux 6.0.  I
noticed that the default gateway is missing in the output of route -rn
(listed below), but when I try to "route add default gw 151.198.16.1", I get
"SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable." message.  I apologize for not having the
version of the 3c59x driver to report, but it is the one that came with 6.0
distribution.  Please let me know if you need any additional information.
The card works fine on Windows95/NT4.0.  I am subscribing to DSL from Bell
Atlantic via this card.

Any hints, suggestions, etc. will be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Goran Arbanas
