Fedora :: Can Update / But No Internet Access Through Browser
Dec 8, 2010
I just installed fedora on a customers laptop of mine and just trying to get everything working. I hooked up a wireless PCMCIA linksys card and got connected to my wireless and went through the first 250+ updates, all that went fine, so I know I am getting internet access. Everytime I open firefox though I cannot connect to any websites, like I said I am a noob so my troubleshooting skills are very limited with linux, anything I can try etc.

On one machine is upgraded from F7 to F10: no problems. On my second machine, I did a fresh install. I can connect to the internet via KPPP, but both Firefox & Konqueror fail to recognize that I'm online. I tried to create a network modem connection, but when I select "new" & "modem", then press the "forward" button, nothing happens.

Web Browsers and email clients unable to access the Internet.
Able to get software and updates with no problem.
The IVP6 setting is ignored in the Network Configuration. I have triggered it both ways.
As for the firewall configuration, well it freezes at the splash screen when invoked.
Fedora 12 is the first spin, since Fedora 9, that I was able to get any updates. Versions 10 and 11 could not access the internet with anything, no matter what was attempted.
BTW, I am using Mandriva 2010 to get through here.

I need to get the libstdc++.so.5 library ( on a computer with Fedora 8 and don't wonder why it's so ancient,-there is a good reason for it) but I don't have Internet access from that computer, so I can't get to the online repo's.
However, I do still have the installation disk, and I'm typing this from a computer (SuSE 10) that is half a meter from the Fedora box.
I tried the "ADD/REMOVE Software" option on the menu, but it keeps on looking for the online repo and then if it doesn't get it, it fails.
Is it possible to get this library from the installation disk. How? Could I download the single package from the online repo onto the SuSE machine and then move it to the Fedora machine? How do I then tell the Fedora machine to "incorporate" it.

I use Transmission to download torrents off the internet. The problem is whenever I start the download, I cannot access the internet via my web browsers, Chrome AND Firefox. Altho, I can use Pidgin or Empathy to communicate. Why should I do ? I am assuming it is causing some sorta congestion .. I tried giving the downloads "low" priority, applying temporary speed limits but it doesn't help.

I need to install a program by using the address http://255.255.255.255. However, when I type this address in my browser, I get the following error: "Failed to connect. Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 255.255.255.255. Though the site seems valid, the browser was unable to establish a connection." Is there an easy way to put this site into the air?

I have a linux box (fedora) with two ethernet cards eth1 and eth2. On eth1 I successfully configured a PPPOE internet connection. Such that from the server I can browse the internet. On eth2 I wired it to a wireless router essentially to provide the wireless cloud. On eth2 I also configured dhcp, such that the Linux box is both PPPOE and DHCP server.However my clients on the LAN cannot access the Internet.
On passing the routing command I get
Destination Gateway Iface
196.44.x.y 0.0.0.0 ppp0
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 eth2 (my subnet)
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ppp0.
The router (functioning as a wireless access point mainly) has a fixed IP address of 192.168.1.2 and eth2 has IP address 192.168.1.1. The dhcp file running on Linux has been set with option router (Gateway) 192.168.1.1. I cannot figure out how to correctly set the routing table such that my clients on wireless can access the internet cloud. I googled and googled but no solid solution. Any suggestions?

Fedora 15 latest updatesHP Mini 210 NetbookMy internet was working fine. Then all of a sudden it stopped working on my Fedora netbook. I also have an iMac and can connect that to the internet without any problem. So my Internet connection is working fine on the iMacHowever, when I put the cable in my Fedora netbook. I get the IP address through DHCP and DNS automatically. This is the same setting as my iMac. I also have a windows partition on my Fedora netbook. That works fine, so there is no hardware problems.I can ping the router ok. But cannot pingor browse any wReturns cannot find host name google.com. So I think there is something wrong with the DNS.resolv.conf doens't have any DNS address in there. As there are assigned using DHCP.

I had a duplicate IP from another device on the network that would jut not let it go and was the same IP as my Fedora box that was working fine. After screwing around with the other device I finally just gave up and changed the IP on the Fedora box. Now I can't access the internet at all from the Fedora box. I looked in my routing tables in my router and the mac was showing as the mac of the other device. After some reboots here and there that is fix and the routers routing tables are now showing correctly. The Fedora box still can not resolve any domains or get online. Is there something somewhere inside the Fedora box that is still jacked up from the duplicate IP?

I have installed fedora 11 64 bit on a new computer. I have no problems accessing the computers on my local network, but can not get past the gateway. The gateway is running windows XP with IP address 192.168.0.1 and is named "internet". When I boot the new computer in windows, there is no problem. Here is the output of some commands I saw in other posts with similar problems:
$ /sbin/ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:24:8C:7F:10:0C
inet addr:192.168.0.245 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::224:8cff:fe7f:100c/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

Firewall disabled.Static IP addys given to each laptop, but makes no diff when dhcp derived IP addys.using wlan Cannot ping either laptop from a windows box, bit windows box pings other computers.Can access internet from either laptop and Samba works too.I can ping one laptop if I plug the LAN wire into it. In fact I can ping either the wlan IP addy or the LAN addy this way. WHen I remove the Lan wire I can still ping the wlan on the laptop, but restarting screws it all up again.I see that iptables and other files change when I plug the LAN cvable in and then remove it again.

I installed Fedora 13 on my laptop today after deleting a badly screwed up Windows XP partition. Everything installed smoothly even my Broadcom drivers but I can't seem to figure out how to get Firefox to access the web with a URL.
I can ping Google, and can get to it in Firefox if I use the IP address from the ping, but going to [url] in Firefox will give me an error message about not being able to find the server at the web address. I was also able to update from the terminal with yum update just fine. I've tried searching Google for some answers, and maybe I just can't phrase my query right, but I found nothing that I could use to try and fix my problem.
I've attached a HardInfo report which I hope could be useful if you need to know what my hardware is (an HP Pavilion zv5000 laptop).

I've installed Fedora 13 on a Toshiba Satellite A40 laptop, and am trying to get the wired ethernet connection to work. Network Manager says it is connected, and the connection details (DHCP assigned IP, gateway, dns servers) all seem correct. However, I cannot browse the internet. Checking for updates fails also. I have tried pinging various sites and the results are inconsistent - sometimes it works, sometimes it times out with "unknown host". [URL]... I've searched around for similar issues and tried disbaling ipv6 both in Fedora and Firefox, but this doesn't help either.

I have zero internet access on my laptop via wired or wireless connection, and need to apply this patch, but have pretty much no idea where to start.Running vanilla FC13 x86_64. Whats the easiest way to go about this, considering its hard work for me to download packages and their dependencies at college (where I am posting from now) and installing them at home, it could take days.

After upgrading to F14 from F10, we seem to have access to the internet from our console, and no one is able to connect to server as well. We have static IP from comcast. And all the configurations on the eth0 looks fine. We are able to browse, if we set the server to dynamic ip. Also, we are able to connect another PC (laptop) with the static ip configuration, and browse fine. Read through many messages on this forum, cant get any clues,

I have a work network of about 20 boxes most of which are running Windows 7 and one of them is a file server using linux and another is Windows server 2003. Now the local IP is distributed by the router, and no regulation of internet access is done by any of the servers.What I need to do is restrict internet access to select domains, which would probably need DHCP through linux(I think, not really sure), and I need something simple like a 'blabla.conf' file with the allowed websites that I can edit. need to know how to regulate IP addresses through the linux box (all details if possible, I never tried to do that before), and how to restrict internet access also through linux.

I see from the netspeed applet that my computer is downloading stuff almost constantly. Not a whole lot, 8b - 700b per second while apparently doing nothing. Some of this is just responding to broadcasts from the router, but surely not all. I would like to be able to determine which programs are accessing the internet over that wireless card, with a view to cutting down on my bandwidth usage. Is there a program that can tell me which ones are doing what at a given time?

I am building a CarPC which I'd like to have wireless internet access on. I have Verizon phone service so if there is a Verizon air card (not wireless card, an air card so I can have constant access without having to search for hot spots) that would work with Fedora 10 I would be very happy. I don't really know where to start and I can't find too much on Google, so I'm just looking for what options are available.

Fedora 11 is completely unable to access the internet for some reason, and after some troubleshooting, I've determined the problem to my Motorola 2210 DSL modem. I know my connection is working fine, as it works perfectly in both Vista and 7. I've tried things such as grep 'Ethernet' /var/log/dmesg, filling in the information into the network settings manually, to no avail.
