Hi,
I have a linux box using Redhat 7.2 with 2 NIC and a Alcatel Speed Touch Home (=ADSL-modem using a NIC). I want to configure it as a router but I can't get the internet connection working.
I did a fresh install of Linux, installed rp-pppoe3.3-1, ran the adsl-setup. No problems till there.
So i try to ping my dns-servers:
#ping 194.119.232.3
PING 195.119.232.3 (194.119.232.3) from 10.0.0.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.
From 10.0.0.1: Destination Host Unreachable
From 10.0.0.1: Destination Host Unreachable
From 10.0.0.1: Destination Host Unreachable
Then I try this:
#ping -I ppp0 194.119.232.3
REPLY FROM 194.119.232.3 ...
REPLY FROM 194.119.232.3 ...
REPLY FROM 194.119.232.3 ...
When i run ifconfig, it shows my eth0-adap and a ppp0-adap WITH an valid IP to surf the net. When I open lynx it keeps saying:
"...looking up <my-url>..."
or something like that.
Don't know how to fix this problem, anyone? Need some help PLEASE!
NOTE: on the site of roaringpenguin it says NOT to assign an ip to the NIC. I tried that too but worked either!
