Question can't connect to the internet


Hi,

I just downloaded Incognito... I'm running the live CD however I can't access the internet. The connection to the router is fine since I could ping other devices that I have plugged in to my router. I tried opening the ports that are listed for the PROXY servers under FIREFOX & KONQUEROR but nothing.
can anyone help? The TOR Icon (the garlic looking icon lol) has a small orange dot.
Under client it says : NOT ENOUGH INFO TO TRY NETWORK YET.

thanks

Try to disable tor to see if you can surf.
It can take some time before tor gets enough info.

I disabled TOR but still I can't surf. it might be due to the PROXY configuration in Firefox. however I left the laptop running for a while and still I can't connect to the internet. I see data flowing on TOR but I can't surf the net.
thanks!

Do you use wireless, wired ?
open a terminal and give the output from
Code:
ifconfig
iwconfig
route -n
cat /etc/resolv.conf
can you ping the router?

Incognito will automatically proxy all traffic through Tor even if the application is setup to use the network directly. In order to disable this, type the following in a terminal:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/iptables stop
Please post your Tor log here (you find that easily in TorK).

Hi Repo!!!! :=)

ok, with Tor & Firewall enabled I can ping the router however I can't ping 209.85.227.99

with Tor & Firewall DISABLEDI was able to ping both address (router & 209.85.227.99)

I think we are getting closer.. what would be the next step?
thanks for your help!

disable Tor & Firewall
try to ping www.google.com
if that works, you should be able to surf.


Does your router has a firewall?
perhaps the router is blocking torports

Then there is a problem with DNS
try to put the DNS from your provider in
/etc/resolv.conf

Once this works, you can start with enabling tor and the firewall.
Ans as ceantuco asked:

I would suggest to forward everything on the router to the server.

oeps, my mistake, should be anonym :-)

I booted incognito on my laptop, and it takes some time before the circuits are made.
At the beginning I had the same errors as you.
But now it connects. (it took about 5 or 6 minutes)
It uses the default setup, I did not configured anything.
Even the firewall in the router wasn't changed.
Does the router uses DHCP => do yo get a IP from the router?
