No Internet using a router
 

the other day i got myself a surecom router, and its been nothing but a pain to get my computers to use the same cable connection.
the router itself is capable of running dhcp servers, so the only configuring i should have to do on my pcs is configure them to use dhcp to connect.

my cable isp has told me that all the dns and ip assignment is done automaticaly. so i was able to get all my pcs to comunicate and ping the router and ping each other, and even access the router's webinterface.

after configuring the router to everything automaticaly using dhcp, i'm still not able to get any of the computers to connect to the internet. i've reset it and started from scratch, but nothing works.

any help is very much appreciated!

thanks in advance

ps: my computers are running suse 10.0 (2.6.13-15 kernel) and vectorlinux 5.1.1 (2.6.13 kernel).

Some combinations are really picky about the order they power up. I have to power up my modem, wait until it is all happy and then (an only then) power up my router.

Have you verified that your gateway settings for the computers on the subnet are equal to the IP ADDR of the cable modem?

Open a terminal and post output of:
You should have your ISP nameserver IP addresses set in these. For example:
