Config ADSL
Hi Fedorans.
Hmmm... I need some insight to solve this one.
I've set up a FC1 box to access the web through an ADSL device on a UTP network (ie
not USB config).
I can ping DHCP-assigned IP 165.165.144.130 say.
I can ping P-t-P addr 165.165.128.1 (gateway?) with mask 255.255.255.255
I can't ping DNS 196.25.1.11 say, Ctrl-C shows packet loss.
I can't ping canonical names www.cnn.com say, Ctrl-C doesn't even report a
response.
I've added all sorts of combinations and permutations with 'route add',
alack.
It seems as though the further one moves away from the low level functionality, the less
name resolving etc one 'sees'.
I've this going before, but can't remember how.
I am aware of the naming issue in the 'Internet Connection Wizard', where one has
to enter 'ppp0' as the provider name.
Any insight is appreciated.
