Hi Ludovic,

I get a dialog "Checking connectivity" with a text "Waiting for Internet 
access establishment ..." and a progress bar that runs from 0% to 100%. 
When 100% is reached I get an error dialog "Connection error" with a 
text saying "The selected network does not provide access to the 
Internet, please try again." and an OK button. After I press the OK 
button the "Checking connectivity" starts again from and then fails again.

I imagine that the values for own IP address and for default gateway 
can't be determined by the installer. There is no DHCP server providing 
those values. I think that I need to enter those values manually.

Regards,

Meikel
