Kaula Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 (edited) Ping no browse issue. Topology: motorola 850g wireless router -> win2k system with a wireless pci card -> same win2k system doing ICS over a ethernet port -> linux machine no firewalls, port forwarding, avntivirus, or spyware i enabled ICS on the wireless adapter (192.168.10.1) which put my ethernet adapter on the same machine to 192.168.0.1 with a subnet of 255.255.255.0 installed simplymepis i reboot the win2k machine and the mepis machine (connected via crossover) computers come up: win2k- wirelesscard- ip: 192.168.10.5 gw: 192.168.10.1 sub: 255.255.255.0 ethernet- ip: 192.168.0.1 gw: blank sub: 255.255.255.0 mepis- eth0 shows- ip: 192.168.0.247 and when i do netstat -rn i get this destination gateway genmask flags mss window irtt ifac 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 eth0 I can ping server names like yahoo.com and ping ips. Cannot browse by ip or name. I can establish a connectoin with ftp servers from the bash, but as soon as it connects it tries to get the file list and times out. From the bash i can connect to irc servers, but as soon as it finds my hostname it times out. Kweather works. But I've been trying very hard to get this to work and so far nobody has been able to help. The ICS works, I have a windows box i switched with the linux box to make sure. Its not simplymepis, College linux, vector linux, and ark linux all did the same thing. Ping no browse.

Kaula Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 13 hours of working on it, and it was a bad crossover cable. guess next time ill check for packet loss first.. Quote
Kaula Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 whats sad is that i dont know anything about linux so the first 5 hours i spent trying different distros because i thought the others were bad. i kept seeing ping replys, but never bothred to see how many of the packets were slippin Quote
stevevan Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 Don't ya just HATE that? It's always the simple stuff too! Glad you got it fixed! (At least you learned a little about different versions of Linux!) Quote
