I think I found something, but I don't know what it means. While I was in YaST, I tried to edit the nic card which is recognized as D-Link dfe-530TX+ 10/100 Ethernet Adapter Configured as eth0 with DHCP. A Window opens with this in it: the resolver configuration file(/etc/resolv.conf) has been temporary modified by dhcpcd. You have 2 options: 1 Modify and 2 Accept. If you select modify, you will see 3 different IP addresses from Cox Cable. Any thoughts?

There's an option there to have it detect your network interfaces and auto-configure them. You need to run that first, then, if needed, tweak the settings to match what you actually have. This is a common problem with YAST, in that it can, essentially, delete configurations that are in the middle of being updated when a failure occurs.
