DHCP Problem

I just installed Mandrake (Caldera) Verion 7.0 on my PC. The problem is I can not grab the and IP from my Router (running DHCP Server). I went to the root# and type linuxconf and it pops up for me the GUI, I have select "Enable" and "DHCP" but when I in Root#, type "ifconfig" it shows me the IP address as 127.0.0.1 (loopback addr). Anyone has any advise ?
Thanks,
