For some reason I get routed to ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/pcre/pcre-3.9.tar.bz2
And then: Host not found


?

Do I need a system logger?

And:
I do not know what the cron package does, should I emerge it?

check the output of
Code:

# /sbin/ifconfig

and
Code:

#/sbin/route


if ifconfig doesnt show "UP" and "RUNNING" then you need to do

Code:

# /sbin/ifconfig <device> <ip address> broadcast <broadcast address> netmask <subnet mask>


if route doesnt show a gateway that look feasable youll need:

Code:

# /sbin/route add -net default gw <gateway> netmask 0.0.0.0 metric 1


then if theres no difference:

Code:

# nano -w /etc/resolv.conf


Then see if there are any working nameservers in there, my NTL ones (UK) are 194.168.4.100 and 194.168.8.100

Good Luck
