The only IPv4 connectivity you have is to 127.0.0.1/255.0.0.0 via lo (below). Your computer has no way to reach 192.168.1.254 so is legitimately returning "Network is unreachable". Try the following command: # ip addr add 192.168.1.1 broadcast 192.168.1.255 dev eth0 then point your web browser to "http://192.168.1.254";. As Camaléon and others have pointed out, you need to have an address on the same subnet as your router to be able to talk to it. Often, this is done with DHCP, but you may not have that set up if you've previously configured the router. > lo     Link encap:Local Loopback  >      inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0 >      inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host >      UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1 >      RX packets:146783 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 >      TX packets:146783 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 >      collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 >      RX bytes:11620515 (11.0 MiB)  TX bytes:11620515 (11.0 MiB) > And.... > weaver@Bandit:~$ ping 192.168.1.254 > connect: Network is unreachable -- Paul Saunders
