No. I can successfully ping "localhost", but
nothing else; cannot ping
other equipment inside my network nor internet IPs.

I belief you are using the Virtual Appliance for VMware
Player/Workstation? If so can you try to set the network to NAT (and
then restart)? By default it's set to bridged mode and this does not
always work with VMware.
Kind regards,
Martijn
Thanks for the responses. I tried "apt-get
. . .", but it failed
because,
of course, DNS doesn't work so the package
server(s) cannot be found.
Likewise, the Other | Update . . . feature did not work.
Like all the equipment in my home office, I set DNS to public servers at
OpenDNS, so the djigzo's DNS settings are:
DNS 1: 208.67.222.222
DNS 2: 208.67.220.220
DNS 3: [blank[
Weird. Can you ping 208.67.222.222 ?
