 |
|
ok, i booted the 2004.01 LiveCD min.
everything is fine.
no network. ok no problem. i configure it manually.
my router got this address: 192.168.2.1
so i give my laptop this.
192.168.2.250
192.168.2.255
255.255.255.0
as gateway: 192.168.2.1
as nameserver: 192.168.2.1
ok i can ping succesfully: 192.168.2.250 (own eth0)
i can ping successfully: 192.168.2.0 (as broadcast)
But i can't reach my router or any other pc on my network. nor can I get outside to continue with the installation.
any idea what to do??? |

well i had problems with getting my network to work..installation cd didn't detect my network card..
i had to use modprobe to install my driver(natsemi in my case)
this gave me the result
eth0 up

i wasable to ping www.yahoo.com or anyother website..and it worked..
