In order for IP packets to move from one network to another, a router must exist to connect the two networks. However, you don't have that. Here's what you currently have : Node Node Address Network Address router 192.168.254.254 192.168.254.0 computer 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.0 [snipped correct assumptions]
Thanks, /immensely/, for your insight--I set my address to 192.168.254.1, and have etherconf'ed my gateway to 192.168.254.254 / netmask 255.255.255.0
Once I connect (using the PPPoE interface within the router), I get access to the outside! My connection was turned-on today and I'm getting about 84kB/s (much better than my old 53.2k dialup).
Only problem, it seems, is that I still need to manually connect within the web-interface of the router--I can't seem to trigger the connect otherwise.
I tried setting the router to being a DHCP gateway, but I get no connect (if I set it correctly, that is).
Any further thoughts? -- andrew
