Wireless talks to the router but does not connect to websites


Hi,

Just like the title says, my router is able to connect to 192.168.0.1 (router) but not with the internet. When I try to access websites, it says page not found. How can I fix this?

Thanks

Now, ifup eth1 gives me this,

eth1 device: Intel Corp. PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04)
eth1: warning: using NO encryption
ERROR: command 'iwconfig eth1 essid any' returned
Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
SET failed on device eth1 ; Input/Output error

iwconfig gives me normal values for eth1, except for ESSID field which is "" and accesspoint which is 00:00:00:00:00:00

Alright, changing the wireless mode to "master" from managed solved the SET error and this command helped me get on the internet ==>
route add default gw 192.168.0.1

Does anyone know where in suse 9.1 can I permanently add this line so that I dont have to issue this command everytime I restart the machine.

Open Yast then go to network and under your card should be a submenu with advanced settings
where you can set Hostname, routing,and other networking settings.
