Ubuntu Networking :: Get A Short Range To Connect Laptop To The Wifi?
May 3, 2011With most Linux distributions, I can only get a short range to connect my laptop to the wifi. However, when using Ubuntu 10.10, this issue seemed to cure itself and I was able to use wifi in my room. I recently installed Ubuntu 11.04, but suddenly my wifi issues have come back again - I can only connect if I am near my router.
I am using an Intel Wifi 5100. I should also note I can get a wifi connection if I boot into Windows 7.
Ubuntu Networking :: RTL8187B Works Great In Windows Has Short Range In U?
Jun 3, 2010I have a Gateway ML6721 laptop that uses a Realtek RTL8187B for wireless comms. I am very new to Ubuntu and Linux. I am trying out linux using a usb stick, 16Gb with a 4Gb persistence. If I stay in the same room as the router there is no problem. If I walk too far, I get disconnected. Works fine in windows throughout the whole house. Is there a setting I can change or do I need to use a different driver?

Apr 24, 2011I want to plot a set of data in only one plot.The problem is that some points of the data should be better plotted in a linear scale (lets say 0 to 100,000) but there are other data points that, exceding the value 100,000, would be better plotted in a logarithmic scale, as they goes in the range 100,000 to 500,000,000. Let's say the data is:
Code:
X Y
0 100
10000 80
20000 75
[code]....
Is there a way to plot all these points in the same plot in only one X-axis showing two different ranges in that axis: linear: 0-100,000 logarithmic: 100,000 - 1,000,000,000?The axis would be read, for example, as:
Code:
|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|
0 20k 40k 60k 80k 100k 1M 10M 100M 1G

General :: Windows - Routing Everything Except A Certain IP Range Through An OpenVPN Tunnel?
Aug 31, 2011I've been working with my OpenVPN server for a while, and I have a rather interesting problem. I need to redirect all client traffic through the tunnel except for a couple IP's that need to be resolvable locally. The way I'm doing this is pushing these routes from the server:
Server 'PUSH' directives
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4"
I'm seeing that translating into these Windows routes:
Windows routes occurring
Wed Aug 31 15:14:35 2011 PUSH: Received control message: 'PUSH_REPLY,redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp,dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8,dhcp-option DNS 8.8.4.4,route 10.8.0.1,topology net30,ping 5,ping-restart 30,ifconfig 10.8.0.6 10.8.0.5'
Wed Aug 31 15:14:35 2011 ROUTE default_gateway=192.168.1.254
Wed Aug 31 15:14:40 2011 C:WINDOWSsystem32
oute.exe ADD 199.[*.*.*] MASK 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.254

oute.exe ADD 10.8.0.1 MASK 255.255.255.255 10.8.0.5
I've hidden my server's IP beginning with 199 for security purposes.What I've gathered.I'm assuming that 0.0.0.0 is a kind of code for "everything," so I'm not sure how I could get this to work, but the general idea is that I need a specific IP range (172.16.*) to be resolvable on the LOCAL NETWORK (of the client) meaning it does not go through the VPN tunnel and the client can connect to 172.16.* locally.Is this possible? Routes can be executed through the command line, server "push" or client config options. Any way to get this to work while still routing other traffic through would do, really.
Additional Info: I have the server running on Debian 64-bit and the client running on Windows 7 (although Vista needs to work as well).Client/server configs can be provided if needed.
Programming :: Bash Script To Ping A Range Or Own IP-range?
Apr 11, 2011I want to build a bash script, which can ping a range IP adresses which will be filled in by the admin. If there is no IP-adress filled in, then the script must ping the subnet where the system is logged on. So if my ip is 192.168.1.6, then the script must ping from 192.168.1.1 till 192.168.1.255 Or else, if there is given a beginning and ending ip it must ping that!
The first part of the bash script is to ping a given range (see below). But there is one problem, how can I tell the script to ping from $begin till $end, [..] is of course wrong! But what must be filled in there???
echo "Enter beginning IP-adres:"
read begin
echo "Enter ending IP-adres:"
read end
ping -c 1 $begin [..] $end
The second part is to find my own ip and ping the whole range.. How to do that? I only can find my own IP, but I cant ping the whole range,, how to do that?
#!/bin/bash
ifconfig | grep 'inet addr:' | grep -v '127.0.0.1' |
cut -d: -f2 | awk '{ print $1 }'

Server :: Send Traffic Down WAN Link Depending On Client IP Address Range?
Apr 15, 2011I am running Debian Squeeze with the following basic services running:DNS
DHCP
Samba
Squid
The server is setup with three NICs: eth0 (WAN1), eth1 (WAN2), and eth2 (LAN).The server addresses clients with an IP range of 10.0.30.1 - 10.0.30.254. Some clients will be set with reservations so they fall into the 10.0.40.1 - 254 range.
What I want to do is have any outgoing external traffic coming from the first range (10.0.30.0) to use WAN link 1, and any outgoing external traffic coming from the second range (10.0.40.0) to use WAN link 2.
I have sort of got something working. I have created a bare minimum transparent squid3 setup on port 3128, and set the iptables as follows:
Code:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.1:3128
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
I can get internet access, however obviously it only goes through one WAN link. It also seems slower than it should be. I experimented with tcp_outgoing_address, but seemed to not be my friend.
Networking :: Add More Than One IP Range In Squid.conf?
Mar 3, 2011I am going to configure squid in my linux box.I have different kinds of ranges in my office.The default is as under
Code:
acl our_networks src 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.0/24
http_access allow our_networks
can I add my own ranges as
Code:
acl our_networks src 10.1.60.0/24 10.1.70.0/24 10.0.80.0/24 10.1.90.0/24 10.1.100.0./24
http_access allow our_networks we have divided according to floors ,like 1st floor ip range is 10.1.60.0 2nd floor 10.1.70.0 ,third 10.1.80.0 and so on. All IP ping each others successfully.
Networking :: How To Express Range Of Ip Addresses
Sep 22, 2010I do not currently fully understand relationship between binary numbers and ip addresses and subnet addresses; nor am I asking for an explanation here at LQ, when there are plenty at wikipedia and other places...
Even after reading the wikipedia article on it, I still don't grasp it completely, so I was hoping that someone who grasps it in its entirety could answer a simple question.
How can I express the range of ip addresses from 172.22.22.200 - 172.22.22.230 ?
I was trying to make a rule for iptables that only did nat on that specific range of ips, and when i tried used the "-s" flag followed by 172.22.22.200/11 it always changes to 172.0.0.0/11 in the actual rule that is created and displayed by iptables -t nat -L.
I already have many hosts defined on my network, and rather than going through each one and changing its ipaddress to 172.0.0.#, I was hoping to learn a way to represent them in the iptables rule.

Networking :: Determine How Many Subnets Are In A Network Range
Jan 12, 2010I am trying to remember how to determine the number of subnets there are in a given subnet range. The example range is shown below:Quote:217.133.64.0-217.133.127.255nce I did the binary conversions of the two addresses shown, the address that I got when comparing the two was the following:Quote:217.133.192.0he number of subnets I got from his was 63.Correct me if I am wrong, but is the number of subnets the difference between the number, in this case, the third octet and 255? If there is another, or correct, way of determining the number subnets what would it entail?

Fedora Networking :: Turn A Laptop Into A Range Extender?
Oct 7, 2009Is there a way to turn a laptop, or any PC with a wifi network card, into a wifi range extender? Suppose I have the usual wifi router, but unfortunately the signal doesn't cover the whole house; a solution is a range extender, but I thought: if I have a laptop, placed in the same room where I would put that range extender, can't I use THAT as a range extender too? After all, range extender at the very heart are "stripped-down" routers, which in turn are stripped down PCs equipped with a stripped-down version of the Linux Kernel...

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Tries To Connect To Out-of-range Networks
Jul 2, 2010I have a problem with network manager. I use Ubuntu 10.04 on a Dell Latitude D530. I used to have the same problem with Ubuntu 9.10 before I upgraded. I typically connect to two wireless networks: HOME and WORK. Both networks are set to automatic connection mode. I am at work, I connect to the network WORK. At the end of the day, I just close the lid and go home. At home, I open the lid and have the following problem: network manager still displays the network WORK whereas it is clearly out-of-range and it automatically tries to connect to it. It does so until network manager asks if the password is correct.
If I want to connect to HOME, I have to tell network manager to do so. Then, I receive a notification that I am disconnected to WORK. Next morning, I go to work, and I have the same problem, network manager tries to automatically connect to HOME. What I would expect from network manager: when I am at home, NM automatically connects to HOME and does not display WORK, when I am at work, NM automatically connects to WORK and does not display HOME.
Ubuntu Networking :: Alpha 2W Disconnects - Can't Connect To Any Network In Range

It looks like it's trying to connect but then asks for a password (even if allready given one) and if open just not finishing connecting and trying to connect to another network. Happends the same with wicd. Network card is working ok. Also with other computers. Drivers are installed correctly and power consumption management is off.
View 1 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: DHCP3 Server - Setting Double Range Of IP Address
Apr 27, 2010I would like to set a double range of IP address with my DHCP3-server. Now, I have eth0 (which is my only network card) with this IP address : 172.16.93.1 and I have created a second interface eth0:1 with this address: 192.168.3.1. The goal is to give an IP address 172.16.93.X to phones (with option 66) and the IP address 192.168.3.X to the computers.
This is my DHCPD.conf :
ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name "mycompany.com";
option domain-name-servers 172.16.93.1;
default-lease-time 3600;
max-lease-time 2347200;
authoritative;
log-facility local7;
option ip-forwarding off;
default-lease-time 20;
max-lease-time 20; .....
Right now my DHCP server work fine, (I means, no error at the startup ) but the server give always the same kind of IP address, whatever if it's a phone or a computer. I notice something "wired", if I put the :
subnet 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.3.100 192.168.3.199;
option routers 192.168.3.254; }
(Which is first in the dhcpd.conf) after the "subnet 172.16.93.0 netmask 255.255.255.0", the server will give IP address 172.16.93.X at all the clients. Is it possible to give more than one IP range with one network card at the same time? And how set the option 66 to only give IP address (172.16.93.X) to the phones?
Ubuntu Networking :: Create A New Virtual Network Using A Subnet Of Public Range
Jan 27, 2010There seems to be a lot written about virtual networking but I am not sure what approach to take in my situation. My local subnet has a public block of 128 addresses. I have a virtual host running on my machine. My machine has a static address and I'd need to assign one to the guest. I have edited the guest's interface file and assigned a public address to it's eth0. However the guest cannot ping out and I can't ping in.
By default the virtual machine manager creates a virtual network (virbr0) and assigned a private address range to it. I have tried to create a new virtual network using a subnet of my public range (/31) but the manager says the range must to a minimum of 16 addresses (/4). It doesn't look possible to achieve my aims using the virtual machine manager.
In the past I have used the procedure laid out here:[URL].. which is to manually create a bridge. I am not sure that is relevant for my 9.10. I think I would have to disable the network manager if I were to do that and I am not sure how to do that.
Ubuntu Networking :: Firewall - Block Incoming / Outgoing Connections To IP Range
Jul 4, 2010I am still new to ubuntu and I use firestarter as my firewall tool and I was told that its just ufw in a gui. Well anyways I noticed a connection to 174.129.241.144 using https and python, I didn't have any scripts running and my browser was closed, I read the man files for ufw and it said to do something like deny from 174.129.0.0/12 and I want to block all incoming and outgoing connections to this IP range and I was wondering how to do that, I heard of iptables that it would be able to do this but I dont know anything about it. What I should learn so I can handle these kinds of situation in the future and how I can block this ip subnet or also what does the /8, /12, and /16 stand for?

Sep 30, 2010After spending several months coming up with ideas (and ultimately failing), I have found the easiest and simplest way to connect your Ubuntu desktop (or laptop w/o a wireless adapter/card) to the Internet using only a Linksys Wireless Range Expander and an Ethernet cord.
YOU WILL NEED:
Linksys Wireless Range Expander (WRE54G)
Ethernet cable
Linksys wireless router (that is providing your home/office with wireless Internet) The WRE54G can be purchased online through various websites, including eBay. They run anywhere between $10 and $40, but it's going to be cheaper than a USB Wireless Adapter (and no software needs to be installed, making it universal for most Linux distros).

Networking :: Policy Routing Using Two Point-to-point Links?
Aug 27, 2009This one has been driving me nuts for some days now:My Gentoo box which is acting as an internet gateway has two point-to-point interfaces, ppp0 (PPPoE to my ISP) and ppp1 (PPTP VPN link to IPREDator). Packets from my local network are just routed through ppp0 and now the fun part starts: I want to MARK (netfilter...) all packets originating from one specific user on that box in order to use another routing table that will contain a default route via the ppp1 interface.Marking seems to work fine as does the second routing table. But quite mysteriously (at least for me), the packets sent out on ppp1 contain the wrong source IP address, namely the address associated with ppp0.So here is what ifconfig and friends tell me:Network interfaces:

Ubuntu Networking :: Network-Manager "Shared" Method Uses DHCP Range 10.0.0.0?
Aug 30, 2010I am setting up a gateway Ubuntu box and trying to do this the easiest way possible. Using Network Manager in LL 10.04 I have eth1 (usb) accessing the net and eth0 (wired) set up and working. eth1 has a static IP address of 192.168.0.2 and the USB box has 192.168.1.1. This works and I have no issues with eth0. In order to allow eth1 to "share" the connection I have gone toIPv4 and change the method to "Shared to this computer".
Network-Manager automatically starts a dhcp server and assigns ip's from the 10.x.x.x class of IP's. I want to change the assignable ip range to come from 192.168.1.x. I have figured out that it is set in the dnsmasq-base package as uninstalling this and using:
Quote: >sudo service network-manager restart shuts down the eth0 completely - no IP can be assigned! Reinstall dnsmasq-base and it assigns it back with a 10.42.43.1 IP. (and all other PC's on the network are set to the 10.42.43.x range. Where is the dhcp range set?
Ubuntu :: Hostname - Short Name And Long Name - Whats The Difference

I then realised that the command hostname --long gives me the full name (as defined when doing the linux installation) while hostname --short gives me the name as displayed in terminal. My question is; what is the difference between these two? Are both valid?
