General :: Can't Connect To Network / Resolve This?
Jan 5, 2011
I have a problem:
I am on Debian. I configured my nic with a static ip (192.168.1.56).
When I try to connect to a network, initially with ifconfig eth2 I get (correctly):
eth2 inet addr:192.168.1.56 ....
inet6 addr: fe80:221:ff:fe96:4598/64
but after a few seconds the 192.168.1.56 disappears and after some other seconds disappears the inet6 address too.
When I press in the nm-applet it requires me the password but in the meantime it try to connect.
At uni, the connection is a DHCP one. It works for the first few seconds but after it doesn't.
Any possible solution?
Here it is the relevant part of the syslog: (static ip configuration)

I just installed opensuse 11.4 and i'm not being able to connect to my wireless lan. It recognizes my network, but when I click "ok" after typing the password it is like I had done nothing, no connection is set at all.I guess it is probably some configuration stuff since my notebook recognizes all available wireless networks. Sorry about the lack of details, but that is all I got.

I am using an Asus EEE PC 900HD netbook and lately Ive been having trouble connecting to my wireless network (WPA2 secured). The WiFi adapter is a RealTek RTL8187SE. Every time I try to connect Network Manager prompts me for my WPA2 wifi security key, which already happens to be entered in the prompt. I then press Connect but after a while the prompt with the password already entered appears again without connecting to the network. I should point out that this issue only seems to happen on this network.
All other networks (including other WPA2 networks) I can connect to with ease. I have MAC address filtering enabled on this network and have the MAC address properly entered in my router and have been able to connect to my network in the past until now. I believe this is a problem with gnome-keyring as I when I first started using Ubuntu on this computer (9.04) I got confused with the whole default password for keyring thing and I messed it up so that every time I connect to this particular network the Network Manager prompt would appear and I would have to press Connect to connect to my network
[URL] I also tried deleting all my network connections and reconfiguring them to no avail. In my troubleshooting I did make an interesting discovery however. I plugged in a USB WiFi adapter (RealTek RTL8187B) thinking I could at least connect to my network and browse these forums for a solution to this problem. The USB adapter connected to the network and I was able to brose the Internet. I then disovered that I could go into into Network Manager and get the other adapter to connect. I coud then unplug the USB adapter and the other adapter stays connected and works flawlessly. how can I get my netbook WiFi adapter to connect to my network automatically?

I have installed WICD on Debian . I can now access a new a Network Manager screen, which did not exist before, but it does not display/detect any wireless networks. It is like dead. Before installing WICD I did at least have a wireless WPE encrypted network, which was detected, although it often disconnected for no known reasons. Now even that Network has gone and I can't go on line. Can anybody help here? How can I configure the WICDNetwork Manager to detect an existing network or create a new one? In the latter case, would I have to reconfigure the Router settings to setup/connect to a network in Debian? May be I have to do this, because Tor/Vidalia changes my IP address and so my Network Adapter ( Linksys) can no longer connect to the router.
Also, when trying to follow troubleshooting leads in this connection, the Terminal screen on Debian ( CMD) would often return a PERMISSIONS DENIED message.

I have a mac and an openSUSE box connected wirelessly to a router. From my mac, if I ping the Linux machine by both ip address and hostname "elmo.local", I get a response. If I ping my mac from the Linux machine using its ip address, I get a response. However, if I ping the mac from the Linux box using its name "kermit.local" - nothing!
This means in order to share files between them via the network, I have to use the ip address rather than name, but I'd rather not. When I had Ubuntu installed instead of openSUSE this all worked fine out of the box, so I'm assuming it's a problem with the setup of openSUSE rather than the router or the mac.

I'm very new to linux, I've just installed ubuntu 9.10 but it won't connect to the wireless for the internet. It sees my network and I can try to connect to it, it even asks me for the password (yes i'm using the right one) but soon as i tell it to connect it just says its connecting and then asks me for the password again and it keeps doing this?

I have a HP mini 1030NR that is the solid state 16 gb version. Windows was taking over all my memory so my son suggested that I switch to a Linux operating system. I am very impressed but have run into a problem that I can't seem to resolve.
I can't connect to the internet. After finding these forums, I have been able to determine that the card is disabled.
this is what I ge code...
I have checked the firefox file and it is set to work online. When I check to see if the card is enabled, the above is what I get. When I try moving the physical switch on the netbook, the light stays orange.
I totally deleted windows on the netbook and am using a different computer to write this. I am also computer illiterate, so please write slowly so I will understand.

I have a working wireless connection (windows can connect with it and last week Ubuntu was connecting) but Ubuntu 10.10 or 11.04 can't connect now. I can find the wireless network with network manager. Ubuntu tries to connect because the connection was set to auto-connect but never happens other than at regular intervals ask me for password.
I changed the name of the SSID and changed the pass. Still windows can connect and ubuntu can't.
What I have to try to resolve this?

I just installed F11 and can't make VPN connection to PPTP server using NetworkManager.
This is what I get:
** (nm-applet:8092): WARNING **: Error in getting active connection 'Vpn' property: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
** (nm-applet:8092): WARNING **: _nm_object_array_demarshal: couldn't create object for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/3
I can connect to this server from Fedora 10 using identical settings.
VPNC tunnels work fine.

I've replaced Ubuntu 10.10 with F13 and can't connect to the Internet.
I'm using a WiFi connection to my router. I receive an IP address via DHCP. I can connect to the router's web configuration interface, 192.168.2.1. Same with my NAS web configuration interface.
I've also tried with Live CD (F13 and F14beta). Same thing: receive IP, connect to router's web interface, can't connect to Google.
As a check, I tried Ubuntu Live CD and I can connect to the Internet.
I've also tried F13 Live CD on my laptop. Can't connect to the Internet.

I have recently downloaded and installed ubuntu 10.4, and I am finding it impossible to connect to the Internet.
I connect to the Internet through an Ethernet cable. My university (Tuebingen, Germany) provides the Internet through this server:
http://10.196.128.11/upload/custom/green/welcome.html (English link).
When I open my browser in windows vista (I have a duel-boot system), my browser (Firefox) automatically goes to this page, and I log in, and am able to then use the Internet.
Ubuntu also searches for this 10.196.128.11 server, but it continually states "waiting for server to respond". I have checked all the settings I could find in windows and compared them to the ones in ubuntu, and they seem to be identical to me. I am using firefox in ubuntu too so I cannot understand the problem.

All of a sudden Update Manager cannot connect to Internet. I just recently fixed a problem I had with playdeb not installing the games due to a internet connection problem (fixed by downloading the script instead of terminal method), this is the only big change I done recently other than downloading documents and pictures.
Here is the detail as to where or why it cannot connect code...

Cannot connect to internet via Firefox or Midori on my Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop with a Netgear wireless card. However, I can update via yum, I can ping google from the CLI, I can ssh to my desktop, I can point a browser to find my router which /etc/resolv.conf points to, but can't get a browser to resolve hostname. I'm posting from a different machine (desktop), here is my /etc/resolv.conf:

After upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 and running an update ubuntu can't connect to any wifi networks, although it can see them perfectly (and potentially unrelated, the windows partition is having major dns issues with the wifi too).
I've looked around and can't find an obvious fix, just a bunch of posts from people with the same problem that wasn't solved. I got frustrated and was about to install 10.10 again but I noticed I couldn't connect to the wifi on the liveCD either. I then tried the 10.04 liveCD, and the internet worked aswell as when I installed it. However before when I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 I had no problems with the wifi, so it leads me to suspect that there was something installed/some setting in 10.04 that is missing from the latter version.

When using Fedora in VMWare, sometimes I can connect to the internet and sometimes I cannot. I do nothing differently on different days. I restart the machine and / or shut the machine down at the end of the day. When the machine starts back up the next time, I might have an internet connection or I might not have an internet connection. The 2 computer symbol that appears in the top will also sometimes be displayed. If I have that icon and click on it, it will display connections I can use including a sys one. I have a bridged connection chosen in VMWare also. Furthermore, when I click on the System -> Administration -> Network Device Control, 'eth0' is listed and it is listed as 'active'.
Yesterday I could ping out to a specific ip address on our network ( 192.168.1.xxx ). Now, I cannot ping that same ip address. I receive an error 'Destination host unreachable'.
How can I make it so that I have the internet connection every time I start up the machine? What do I need to check as far as the internet connection goes and the network connection?

So I have my new Dell Latitude 2100 (toy) on my network running Ubuntu 9.10 as delivered. I added openssh and the service is running. I can connect to the machine from another using Nautilus or Gnome Commander over ssh. However, I cannot connect from a shell(?)
ken@taylor12:~$ ssh taylor13
ssh: connect to host taylor13 port 22: Connection timed out
Firestarter shows a connection from taylor12 to taylor13 on port 22 - the Gnome Commander connection over which I am currently transferring some files.

As the title suggest, I have downlaoded the latest copy of Ubuntu Server from the ubuntu website.Everything installed fine. DHCP configured ok as far as I can tell. I can ping other machines on my network (which are running Windows) and they can ping the Ubuntu machine and conenct to Apache which is running on it.If I try to ping google.com or any other domain, it gives the correct IP address but gives no response to any pings, dont telnet on port 80 (or any toher potr for that matter) on any machine on the internet. I checked the settings using ifconfig to see what DHCP had assigned, and they matched the windows machines configuration (other than the IP address obvisouly). I tried assigning a static IP, even reserving a particular IP for my NIC.
Whatever I do, i cant connect to any machine outside the network via IP or domain.I have searched everywhere and tried everything i can find on the net but still to no avail.The Windows machines are part of a domain called alcom-uk.local and run off of a Windows Small Business 2003 Server. Not sure if i need to manually setup Ubuntu to connect using a domain or anything.

I'm not sure what I did if anything but I have not used my opensuse for several months. Now when I try to connect to the Internet I can not pull any websites. The wireless connection is active and connected. I am getting an IP address via dhcp. When I try and ping out (opensuse.org) I get unknown host. If I ping an IP address or type the IP in my browser it works fine. nslookup works but only if I specify the dns server.
Here is a copy of my troubleshooting commands.code...

Mac OS X has built-in support for internet connection sharing through the settings as in the following screenshot:
This works very well with other Macs, but I'm having problems connecting to such a network using Linux. I tried all combinations of configuration, double- and triple-check the WEP password but could never get an IP address. In a last effort I also tried without encryption, but still couldn't get my Linux box connect to the network.
I don't know if Windows has the same problem. Now I'm suspecting two things. Either I misconfigured something in my Linux installation, or OS X is doing something smart and makes it difficult for non-Apple devices to use the network (I also tested with an iPhone, it connects very well, unsurprisingly). Now what is wrong? What do I have to do?

Tried the live boot of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my work PC today (it has Windows Vista on it and it is literally DEAD slow). There's a wireless network in the office and the PC has a wireless network card installed.
The problem was the following - I booted up Ubuntu, the "tray" was showing the network icon. I click on it, it shows me the list of all available wireless networks. I click on the one that belongs to our office, enter the password, click "Connect".
Now, here comes the problem - after "loading" for some three minutes, the same window pops back up. No errors, no messages, absolutely nothing. The password is correct because the Windows installation and the other PCs in the office can connect just fine. Anyone knows what could be the problem? The drivers are apparently fine if it can find the networks and detect the connection encryption correctly.

I have been trying to remotely access another computer (which is outside my local network) with ssh and have not succeeded. I've done everything I've seen nothing to suggest and as I opened port 22 on both computers, I have ssh configured so as to allow access from any computer (with password) and tried to log in using the external IP (the encounter with these online pages of "what is my ip"), I have a firewall turned off, the pc from which I agree is Fedora 14 that I want to access MacOS 10.5.8.
I need this because I'm running a very heavy program at the university that I can not run on my personal laptop, but do not want to have to go every day to college for this.

I am a LINUX newbie using Ubuntu. I love it so far but I am having issues. I cannot connect to the wireless network that I am using with my other Windows PC. The problem in my opinion is that the wireless device I use isn't operating. No light comes on the device. I am not sure how to "find hardware" with Ubuntu.

I have ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition running on dell mini 10 and i cannot connect to my wireless network. I entered in everything on the editing wireless network section of ubuntu. However when I try to enter in the mac address as soon as I start typing the apply button becomes unactive. I have entered it before and I did connect to my wireless net with my netbook. However I tried top connect this morning and I wouldn't let me! I did not connect automatically to my wireless net work as it had before. I am typing this message on my desktop using the same internet connection so, I know that the net is active.
