Ok I did the plog and I did see one entry that said "CCP: Timeout sending
config-requests". But everything looked like it should as far as I could
tell. I did see the local IP address had been changed to the IP address my
ISP gave me and did see the remote IP address. So looked like that was all
working.
I think the problem is in the router section and I don't really know what
to do. When I do the "route -n" I get:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------
kernal routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window Use Iface
204.47.44.4 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 1500 0 ppp0
127.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 3584 0 lo
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------
But in the HOWTO it says that I should have a "default" in this table, but
I don't.
When I do the "route add default" it says, "SIOCADDRT:Network is
unreachable". And then when I do a "route add net" I get "Host Name lookup
failure".
I think this may be a problem when I installed debain. It asked me if I was
connected to a network and I said "Yes" and gave the info provided by my
ISP. Such as the DNS addresses and the default gateway info. But when I
boot up I see the same SIOADDRT message.
Should I reinstall? and answer no to being connected to a network. The
installation docs were not very clear on this. Hopefully someone has had
this problem before. I have checked the FAQ's and the Network HOWTOs but
can't figure this one out. Again thanks for your help.
