Do you mean that links doesn't navigate the internet?
To navigate the internet, you need to do two things:
(1) tell Linux the location to your internet gateway
(2) tell Linux where to go to convert alphanumeric
    internet addresses to numerical IP addresses

If the address of your internet gateway 
is 192.168.1.1, enter the following:
--------------------------------
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
--------------------------------
Then edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in 
the address of your Domain Name Server.

Cheers,
Steven
