Trough the LEAF configuration menu type 1 to access to the network configuration menu and 1 again to edit your /etc/network/interfaces file. Enter the following information:

auto lo ppp0 eth0

iface lo inet loopback

iface ppp0 inet ppp
        provider provider

iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.254
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255

The "auto" statement declares all the interfaces that will be automatically set up at boot time. This job will be carried out by the "ifup -a" statement in the /etc/init.d/networking script.

The syntax of "iface" statements is explained in the Bering-uclibc's installation guide.

Backup the etc.lrp package.
