eth0 Activates but no internet!
I recently installed Fedora Core 2 for my friend...
He has ONE ethernet controller connected to a router connected to his DSL modem... Via DHCP, eth0 successfully determines an IP and activtaes ok but he still has no connection to the internet... Mozilla says that he's not connected, and Gaim says the same thing... And a when I installed Fedora Core 2 on my PC, i had a problem with my modem, which i fixed with (as root) setserial /dev/modem autoconfig setserial /dev/modem skip_test So any suggestions? Stumped! thanks everyone! -Benji brose@nac.net |
Can you post the output of 'ifconfig', 'route' and 'cat /etc/resolv.conf'?

lol my friend spent an hour going from one computer to another transferring this data so go a little easy on him next time if possible ;-)
but thanks! ifconfig...

I just noticed in the ifconfig there's a laughing face, ignore that because its supposed ot be a colon and a capital D
sorry for the inconvinence, and thanks again for the help -Benji |

Ok, you don't have a default gateway set.. Your route ahould have an entry "default" like this:
Code:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface Code:
nameserver 68.63.80.5 Check your 'ps -aux' to see what flags it is being invoked with: Code:
root 7548 0.0 0.0 1360 440 ? S<s 20:01 0:00 /sbin/dhcpcd -t 10 ath0 The easy way to set this manually is to: Code:
route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0 Justin |
homey, In FC2 there's IPv6 and not IPv4 so idk if theres a difference involved, but as for now im gonna put ur idea on hold and try Justin's idea. If that doesn't work, then i'll try yours, but or some reason Justin's sounds more promising. and THANK YOU
Justin - THANK YOU!!! Since I wont get to try this out untril probably Monday when I go over his house (Betcha didnt know ur talking to a 15 year old all this time) any replies wont be submitted until then about this working... but to both of you, check back on Monday night IF YOU CAN, and THANK YOU guys SOOOO MUCH for all of your help. Just let me know if there's anything i can help either of you with, I've been using Linux since I was 8 lol so, one last time, THANK YOU! and plz check back around Monday night. |
IT WORKED!!!
I did exactly what Justin said and it still didnt work so i undid it and enabled IPv6 and it didnt work lol So then I did what BOTH of you said and it worked! lol thank you guys muchly!!! :-) |
I hope you figure it out!
