Default route disappears from kernel routing table second after adding it
okay, i've got a dell inspiron 8600 with an intel 2200bg wireless card built in, and it seems to have installed correctly. I'm using Fedora Core 3, and i get a response when i ping any machines on the local network, and i can copy files over the network fine. It's getting on to the internet that's giving me issues.
When i type in route, i get one entry, as follows:
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
The default gateway is set correctly in my network configuration, but the default route is not being added to my routing table. If I add it manually, it seems to disappear after a moment.
If I run:
route add default gw 192.168.0.1; ping (insert outside address)
i receive the first three or so packets correctly (ie they got out and back), but then I start receiving "ping: sendmsg: Network is unreachable".
If I run:
route add default gw 192.168.0.1; route
I get two lines,
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
default speedtouch.lan 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1
as expected.
However, if I then run route again, my default gw entry has disappeared.
Why does my default route keep disappearing???
(I posted a similar msg in the wireless form in late 2004, and it didn't get solved, do i'm trying here, as i get the same problem with LAN)
