Knoppix and Internet connection problems
I am freaking out!!!
I cannot force my KNOPPIX to get connected to the Internet.
I have a laptop HP Pavilion ZE4125 with PCMCIA D-Link DFE690TXD. Knoppix
3.2.
My network connection is LAN with DHCP. When I run netcardconfig and chose
DHCP it fails to assign an IP. However, under windows it is set to DHCP and
works just fine. Therefore, I have written down all the settings (IP,
netmask, default gateway) from windows and entered them manually under
netcardconfig.
When I type ifconfig -a it assigns the correct IP and netmask. However, I
don't have an Internet connection still
This is what I have entered:
ifconfig eth0 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX netmask 255.255.254.0
route add default gw XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX metric 1
(XXX - taken from windows)
then I modify my /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
ifdown -a
ifup -a
Then I try ping 127.0.0.1 - I got response (therefore my eth0 is up)
ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - my IP (the same, I get response)
When I try to ping anything else for example:
ping www.google.com - I get nothing
ping my_default_gw_IP - I get nothing
Here are the outputs of the important commands:
