i have small lan with 3 computers, two win xp and one slackware comp. All three are connected on router (mark: Level ONE), and router is connected to cable modem.
I have dhcp settings for router from my ISP, but there is a problem with internet on linux comp. Network is working properly (i can ping linux comp from other two comps), but i can't surf internet with lynx web browser.
Originally posted by tangle Did you set the default gateway on all the PCs to the routers internal IP address?
He says that he get's it by dhcp.
dhcp must also provide a dg. Try and run dhcpcd and look at the output of ifconfig. Also try to ping a nameserver on the internet to be absolute sure it that your Internet is not working.
