Really? Have you restarted (yeah, there are other ways, but some of those GUI tools do things like that)?

Also, please post new route and ifconfig to reflect new settings.

Ok, now I'm restarting my linux machine. By the way maybe it's important. I use the Terayon modem. My windows machine is connected to USB entry of this modem and my linux machine is connected to ethernet entry. I think this modem supports two machines but does it affect the Networking Configuration on linux machine? Now I'm connected in the windows.

Ok, after rebooting it's much better!

route

same+ this row

default 172.24.128.1 0.0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0


ifconfig the same


when I do ping I get the next:

PING www.yahoo.com (213.57.1.13) 56(84) bytes of data


but.. it hangs up! after several minutes I use Ctrl+C and get 100% loss

Hrrm, that's rather odd. I wonder if it's provider dependent. What's in /etc/resolv.conf?

Those are rather odd IPs for nameservers, unless you're running two DNS servers on your LAN.

I have read some info. And now I see two problems.
1. My resolv.conf should be
domain <my_isp_domain>
nameserver <my_DNS1_server>
nameserver <my_DNS2_server>

I changed it but after rebooting it becomes 198.... some script changes it. But it's a small problem

2. I can ping to my provider's host but to my DNS not! And the problem is here:

$route -n

Destination Gateway

172.24.128.0 0.0.0.0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0 172.24.128.1

I can ping to 172.24.128.1! maybe it should be

172.24.128.0 *
127.0.0.0 *
default 172.24.128.1

How can I change that?

I get "File alreday exist". I think now that I don't need to config anything. All already done. I suppose the problem is in the DNS server of my provider. I have two DNS: 192.168.101.102 and 192.168.101.101. They both don't work! In additional there is reserved IP for local networks, am I right? If yes, how can I config other DNS? I tried to ping to servers using IP and not domain name, it still doesn't work I told with my provider, they don't want to support UNIX machines So can I use other DNS providers? Or if I run my own DNS will it solve this problem?

Thanks!

P.S. I hope I was clear enough. I'm very bad in english :/

your own DNS would still need an upstream DNS to look up domains for which it has no information.

192.168.101.102 and .101 are both going to be local IPs, and are unlikely to be the proper DNS server. I guess the question is what DHCP server is supplying information like that to your client. Look in your logs for anything about dhcp.

I don't know what's DHCP and what it should do :/ What maybe the problem? If these are correct DNS why doesn't ping to these servers work? Does DHCP supply something wrong? I remember when I was installing my linux I selected automatic DHCP :/ If it helps to help me

Those are definitely NOT the correct DNS servers. DHCP is the "Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol", and is how 99% of broadband connections should be set up, such as yours.

DSL connection

This description has affected FC2 and FC3 but I don't know if it has been fixed in FC4 as this problem has been documented since 1999! It is possible that in your configuring you may have done something to your /etc/resolv.conf file

Don't worry, it's not your fault. Redhat and Fedora have a looooong history of problems with this file. If you are using the automatic configuration, it puts the DNS address in the wrong file and your browser can't find it. Call your ISP and get their address and enter it statically and see what that does, Also, use a text editor to delete the contents of the /etc/resolv.conf file (NOT the file itself). This is a temp storage file so don't worry. Backup what is in there to a text file for reference before you delete anything if you feel more comfort.

Also turn off firewall temporarily and look into the ivfg6 component.

good luck
