I am using Fedora 2, when I set up DHCP as instructed by verizon, it doesn't give me the option to put in a gateway IP. If I set to DHCP, and ping 192.168.123.254, I get "network is unreachable". If I set it to static IP, it requires an IP address in addition to a gateway. Since IP address is dynamic, I don't know what to put for it. "ifconfig" in root gives the following:
etho Link:encap Ethernet HWaddr: 00:50:2C:07:DA:3F
inet6addr: fe80::250:2cff:fe07:da3f/64

Hope this helps, forgive any typos. Thanks for the response!!

ok make sure that the phone filter is off of the modem phone line.
Plug the ethernet from the modem to the WAN port on the router.
Plug ethernet line from LAN 1 tp PC
configure eth0 static or dhcp, gateway 192.168.123.254
open browser go to http://192.168.123.254 to setup your router
