 Posted: Fri Aug 12, 2005 6:19 pm Post subject: New ADSL Router - now no gaim, irc, ntp |
 |
|
I have just installed a new ADSL router and its connected and running fine for my windows machine. It also appears to work fine for me. I get an IP, i can browse the internet, and portage can download files. However when I try to access MSN via gaim, or quakenet via irssi, or sync my time the services all timeout. Now this is not a problem with the router as I can sign on in windows.. I fear it might be my routing table:
| Code: |
#route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

For comparison this is what mine looks like:
| Code: | Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.107.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.107.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 |
Don't know how or why the difference in lo would affect you.

| I am really baffled with this, I can't see why something would be blocking specific services like it is. |

It's not your routing table. I checked a couple of other systems and those with static IP addresses have a lo line that looks like yours.

Well I changed how the router manages DNS at now everything works... which I'm still confused about because I was using DNS before to browse the internet.. so I have no idea.
Thanks for your help darkphader |
