TIP: Resetting the Network Configuration to the Default Values
Reset the network settings to the original proposed values by clicking Change

Test Internet Connection
After having configured a network connection, you can test it. For this purpose, YaST
establishes a connection to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop server and downloads
the latest release notes. Read them at the end of the installation process. A successful
test is also a prerequisite for registering and updating online.
If you have multiple network interfaces, verify that the desired card is used to connect
to the Internet. If not, click Change Device.
To start the test, select Yes, Test Connection to the Internet and click Next. In the next
dialog, view the progress of the test and the results. Detailed information about the test
process is available via View Logs. If the test fails, click Back to return to the network
configuration to correct your entries.
