Add Gateway in your /etc/sysconfig/network file.
and restart the network service using service network restart command.

Have a look at my configuration.
You can change the hostname and gateway rest all the same.

Code:

# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=no
HOSTNAME=MyLinuxBox
GATEWAY=10.180.10.1

If above fails please use neat-tui command.

Quote:

#neat-tui
then edit device parameter->eth0
dont click dhcp instead give a static ip address.

You should be done after restarting network service.

Yes!!!! Browsing works!

Thanks!

But after browsing one page firefox shows same patterns like this picture.

However at this time one more "neat-tui" and "service network restart" makes firefox browse web pages. In other words whenever I want to see new page I should do "neat-tui" and "service network restart".

And my network is here.

DOMAINNAME=maester
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=maester
FORWARD_IPV4=true
NETWORKING_IPV6=no

Do following .

open a terminal and type.
ping maester
whatever ip address you get .
just enter it in your /etc/hosts file .
for example
ip adderss maester

Restart the network service.

P.S. I m not able to see the picture uploaded by you (Thanks to firewall installed at my workplace).

Can you please tell us what ip address and gateway address you are giving in neat-tui

Please see this attached picture.

It seems you are not able to get the ip address or your ip address get blocked at dhcp due to change in network card.

However i would suggest you to give it a static ip address rather than dhcp .
YOu can do it using neat-tui then instead of selecting dhcp (Which is selected in picture)You can select static ip address then fill other fields like ip ,netmask default gateway.

You should be done.

Hi,

Please let us know the LAn setup in your organisation or office or school or you home.

How the others get IP in there system?

Is it through DHCP or is it Static?

windstory · 09-28-2010, 03:57 AM

pinga123/ I'll try and post here the result.

prayag_pjs/
I have an internet share router at home.

The other machine has 192.168.0.2.

It's through DHCP.

pinga123 · 09-28-2010, 11:29 AM

Ok.

Now answer following questions.

Who has setup internet router @ your place?
If its been setup by you then just reset the router this can be done by reading the manual .My router gives me a reset button but i will have to poke a sharp wire to reset it.

Once you reset your router. make sure you restart the network service at your linux box by putting dhcp in neat-tui.

You should be done.

There is no need to assign ip address manually if you are using a router .

Router assigns the IP automatically provided you have DHCP enabled (In your case you dont need to do anything).

The problem you are facing is because of mac conflict in the router.

Just reset the router and follow the steps .
