Hi Iam Ali ,iam newbie to fedora .I have a Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC and it`s configured in Fedora but i can`t connect to the internet , i configured my connection using system-config-network , i shut down both the firewall and SElinux ,and used ifconfig but there was no response (when i try to ping a host the prompt shows an error message "network unreachable ")
i want to setup my network prefrences to:

IP:192.168.1.10
NETMASK:255.255.255.0
GATEWAY:192.168.0.1
DNS:192.168.0.1

these configurations work on windows
any help
thanks
Ali

Please don't multi-post. The rules clearly state this.

You should look at the output of
/sbin/ifconfig
to check if you have an IP address and that the device is working. /sbin/ifconfig should not hang. If it does you may have a device problem or are using the wrong kernel module.


Look at the output of /sbin/route to check that you have the default gateway.

Look at the contents of the /etc/resolve.conf file. This contains the nameserver (DNS) addresses.

It would be better to enter your ISPs DNS addresses instead of 192.168.0.1. For a static configuration (no dhcp) you can manually edit the /etc/resolv.conf file.

On the same computer I hope.

Those settings imply that you are using a router. Is it set to DHCP? If so, be sure that you are using DHCP in the computer also.

Can you ping the router? (Typically 192.169.1.1)
