Internet connection problem Fedora


I simple can not connect to the the internet to surf, when i try to connect to a website it simple says cannot not be found. Please check the name again

can you ping your default gateway?
can you ping your DNS/DHCP server?
can you ping ISP?

What is the output of the command route ?

Are you using both wired and wireless? Try turning one off.

ifconfig eth0 down

To bring it up again do

ifconfig eth0 up

If you're using dhcp you can renew by

dhcpcd

Ok, pinging your gateway would have helped, except your gateway is your ETH0. As suggested above. type ifconfig eth0 down and see what happens. Also, you may want to fill us in on what your network is like. I'm guess cable/dsl modem connected to a wireless router. Emailing me is fine, but there are a lot of people on these boards that can help and probably get back with you quicker.
