The routing table just pops up, no delays?

This looks like a nameservice issue, try:

ping 64.32.160.171

If that pings, check the contents of /etc/resolv.conf for valid nameservers.... if not, it doesn't seem to the doing NAT right, so if you can ping the router:

ping 192.168.1.1

And if you can ping other items on the network, then its horfled at the router...

If you successfully got an IP off of dhcp from the router then all of the wireless config is taken care of, now its just normal networking issues.

Cheers,

Finegan

So you have the following and no delay:

Code:
finn@grumpy:~$ /sbin/route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
What's "iwconfig" output? Also, "ifconfig" shows the device as up and with an IP address? Is Iptables on the client empty, as in the command:

iptables -L

Returns a blank three? If not:

iptables -F

Cheers,

Finegan
