seems OK- why are you using this IP ? What the IP of your access point ?

OK no link but good signal, thats good, at least the AP is working.

OK this is bad, the default gateway needs to be the IP of the access point NOT your linux box.

again you're pinging yourself, not the router. What is the IP of the AP set to ? you need to ping that IP.

Again this might be a problem with the AP. Is it set to set for DHCP ?

~~~~this is my resolve.conf

search 192.168.1.1

Again your're searching your own box, this needs to be the ip of the default gateway.


Check the IP of your access point and try to ping it.
Check if the AP is set for DHCP.
Check the WEP is disabled for now on the AP.

Good luck.

IDK why it did that so let my repost when i went up stairs the ip was
192.168.1.55 idk why it posted 192.168.1.1 that is my router/ap
here is the correct post tho

AND yes my interenet still doesn't work
and i CAN access my network thru samba tho
and i CAN get on my network computers
but i CAN't get www.yahoo.com to work in my webbrowser

can you ping out ?
try
$ping 216.109.118.76

thats yahoo.com

if so then you have a DNS issue, does your ISP dynamically provide DNS servers or did it assign you a few to use ?

well my router should route the dns so on my computers i can have 192.168.1.1 as my dns server
but i will try to type a couple in my resolve.conf for my isp and see if that doesn't work

no i can't ping yahoo
i will post back with the results
if theres another way to chang the dns server someone please tell me cuz so far it sounds like i do it in reslove.conf

ok well i updated my resolve.conf and put

search 137.192.2.4
search 137.192.240.5


and guess what!!!!????
i can ping yahoo at 216.109.118.76
YAY!!!!!

BUT...... my gaim nor my webbrowser will work

try adding:

nameserver 'IP of ROUTER HERE'
to the top of your resolv.conf file.



or change 'search' in those two lines to 'nameserver'.

it may be since you're not running on DHCP the router may not be able to send DNS info but I'm not so sure about that.

to the top of your resolv.conf file.


Now that you can ping (to IPs at least) out its a DNS issue. once you can ping www.yahoo.com your browsere should work.

otherwise thats all I got, you may need to search around the site for DNS problems, as now you're in no different a situation as someone having DNS problems with a wired network.

well i finally got the internet to work


thanks alot guys for helping me

seems that when i put

nameserver (dns server)

it worked!



so thanks again

kewl

kinda nice to not have to rely on that graphical interface, eh ?

for real!

i am still wondering why that dhcp didn't work tho

Hi all,

I am trying to configure Linksys wireless adapter card WPC11 (ver 4) on my laptop. But I keep getting some error or other other.

When I do a modprobe i get this message:

[root@localhost root]# modprobe 8139too
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

(Note: I have a alias in /etc/modules.conf as 'alias eth0 8139too)

I am not sure what look to look for in demesg, but i here is a snapshot:
