Ubuntu Networking :: 10.04.1 - Connect To Adsl Using Command Line?
Oct 22, 2010
i cant connect to adsl with pon dsl-provider or any command line. just network manager applet GUI works for me. i follow this guide [URL] and try about 3 hours but without success. i edit /etc/network/interfaces following this thread: [URL] but after any alteration in /etc/network/interfaces and restart network my adsl connections are not work at all and also i lost my GUI applet connections too. then i have to back /etc/network/interfaces to its original content and restart my computer to restore my connections
pon dsl-provider error is:

I'm trying to connect to a AP by command line but I can't yet. Using the network manager it's possible but I need the command lines to use in my code programming.
Here it's what I tryed: Code: sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed channel 6 key restricted s:'12345' essid 'cassiano-PC_AP' and the tail: sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog Code: Aug 13 14:05:55 cassiano-linux kernel: [13476.935795] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:15:af:84:29:d3 (try 1) Aug 13 14:05:55 cassiano-linux kernel: [13476.935943] wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:15:af:84:29:d3 by local choice (reason=3)
I want to connect to the internet using the command line. I'm 95% I have my wireless card installed correctly, since I'm using it right now.dhclient takes a minute or two, then finishes. It gives no output, success or failure. Then I open up Firefox and I'm not connected to the internet. What can I do to figure out what the problem is?
I need to connect to my router using only CLI, specifying an username and password, preferably with a single command line, so it won't be interactive, 'cause I need to include the command in a script.
So i was wondering if anyone can help me connect to a wireless network via command line instead of utilizing the GUI
so far i have done this, but im not sure what to do after this
Nexus:~ # ifconfig wlan0 down Nexus:~ # ifconfig wlan0 up Nexus:~ # iwlist scan lo Interface doesn't support scanning. eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
i have a leased line ( speed 2 MB ) which we use to connect to our mail server , oracle ERP etc.. we have a dhcp scope defined as 192.168.100.1-192.168.101.254. with a default gateway as 192.168.100.90 ( which is a cisco router ) we have a pix firewall ( 192.168.100.10 ).. now the gateway passed all the request to firewall..
we have an ADSL of 4 MB speed.. ip is 83.*.*.230 from ISP. i have a proxy server ( squid ) eth0 is connected to ISP (83.*.*.230).. eth1 to LAN ( 192.168.100.79 ) now the problem is when i put default gateway to eth1 ie 192.168.100.90 the squid connects to internet via leased line.. if i leave the default gateway field empty on eth1 , the squid connects to internet via ADSL ( which i want ) but the problem is no one on the lan cant ping the squid server ( no connectivity to internet for the whole LAN ) how can i solve this problem? i want squid to connect to internet with ADSL, but if i put gateway on eth1 ie LAN squid goes through leased line which i dont want to happen.
GNU/Linux gods, guides and superbrains.Don't be moddest. I'ts YOU i'm taking about!I'll be your humble problem-describer-pixie / solution-testing-smerf :
Andreas Vinther, 1977, from Denmark
I'm trying to establish a connection between two seperate ADSL LANs (coming into the house, but from separate ISPs) to a situation where all hosts on either LAN will be able to reach any host on eiher LAN WITHOUT having to use an excess of plastic routers around the house, and please no Wireless bridges. WiFi will only be available as Access Points.
I've heard that Debian does this kind of static routintg / RIP stuff quite well. And I just happen to have one lined up in the right place, that haven't got at snowballs chance in hell of running WINXP or above. But it kills at textbased datamanipulation/forwarding/rerouting/dropping/scanning ... so I'vew made up my mind. That is what I want to do... Now how do io get around doing stuff like that.
The Debian box is connected to both networks: Hostname: AsusAnd (192.168.1.0/24 - TDC network) and to (192.168.15.0/24 - Profiber network)
Needless to say, but both netmasks are 255.25.255.0 hence the /24 The respective router's LAN addresses are 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.15.1 My Debian are locked to the following IP's (reserved DHCP):
eth0:192.158.1.56 via DHCP from 192.168.1.1 eth1:192.168.15.177 via DHCP from 192.168.15.1
So far so good - Now here we go ! This is not a scenario where i'd like to always want all network-packages to travel the shortest path, nor NESSESARILY use the other ISPs gateway if the first is down or slow, although that'll be super nice.
I suspect that'll involve router-protocols like RIP. I'll be super pleased to get some guidelines there as well, as i suspect it'll be quite easy to implement once everything else is in place. Although RIP isn't our main goal, it probably comes as a close second. I think we all would like as stable and fast a connection as possible.
I was actually so naive that i thought if i added two static routes to the two routers x.x.1.1 and x.x.15.1, that my problems would automatically be solved by my Debian box, and that it would automatically act as a gateway when the routers send their packages for the other net. As long as i was connected to both LANs at the same time.
Note: I haven't changed or tweaked the Debian kernel to do routing. this is a simple stable install from the net-inst.iso of Debian 5. I'd like to keep it that way unless there's no way around it.
my routers have static routes to each other (WITH PROPER CABLING), configured as follows:
(On router with LAN 192.168.1.1) [static route] to 192.168.15.0 with nmask 255.255.255.0 going throuhg gateway 192.158.1.56 ( Taken from above info ) - metric around 2 Similary on my other NIC directly cabled to another switch ---and-then-to-another---> Router
I am fairly familiar with Linux but had never ventured into Wlan settings / options / too much. I have compatible card (aetheros) and when running - iwlist wlan0 scanning - I get plenty networks showing up - meaning the card works. When I installed distro which is last night (before I ran update), I had that little bars menu at the top of the screen that showed available networks once clicked upon. Since I like to modify and make my settings better - I removed that little AT&T like bar, and now rebooted after update to find that I can not see available networks unless I use iwliset wlan0 scanning.... .#$*&)@&#(&%# - need I say more.
Two questions - how do you connect to the wireless network via command line? What is that vertical bars GUI tool called so I can find it and run it again? Is there (for the love of god) alternative to system-config-network GUI managment tool for wlan?
I'm tryn' to connect to my wireless network using command line:iwconfig wlan0 essid MY_NETWORK as root.
After this typingiwconfig wlan0 result is: wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Bit Rate:1 Mb/s

I installed ndiswrapper in order to use ipn2200 WinXp drivers.
I have a Sony TZ270N running Ubuntu 10.04 splendidly. The Sprint Mobile Broadband works great, but it's a bit cumbersome to activate. Specifically, to get it to work I need to:
Then I wait another five seconds, right-click on the networking icon, choose "Enable mobile broadband", then left-click on the networking icon, and choose "Connect to Sprint Connection". I do this multiple times a day, and it's just a bit of a pain, especially when in a hurry. Accordingly, I'd like to script it so I can do the whole thing with a single command.
I've already put the above echo statements into a script and it works great; is there any way to script the actual start of the PPP session itself -- with the caveat that I'd like the networking icon to accurately reflect the latest state?
(In other words, I don't want to bypass the networking icon and just launch the PPP session in the background -- I want it to show that I'm connected, and still let me manage the connection via the icon after connected.)
I am currently running a network with a file server that runs Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop at the moment. DHCP and samba are setup on it for now. Has multiple network cards but we only use the gigabit interface. Here's what I want to do in the near future. I want to provide internet access to the network via ADSL (no better option currently) So what i'll have is one or more ADSL lines and their corresponding modems (most likely D-link ones as they are cheap). As i understand it the server will be doing the job of a router. anyway, point wise here's what i want to be able to do:
1. Have ability to increase capacity/bandwidth with more ADSL line & modem combinations 2. Have user accounts (probably web based setup or any other option) for internet access so that they can be billed per GB. 3. Still be able to share files that are on the local network using local DHCP if possible.
So to an existing network that has files i want to add internet access capability. but users will have to log on so that their usage can be monitored. I have been searching around but maybe the search terms are wrong for what i need accomplished. i don't mind upgrading the ubuntu version to the server edition so long as i can use X11 forwarding atleast so that i can do remote monitoring. VNC is too slow, and using nautilus forwarded via X11 to my desktop sorts out most of my needs. The network provide has suggested maybe using pppoe but i am thinking if there was a welcome page based authentication system then it'd be more easy to monitor?
I have an ADSL Internet connection with static IP.I connected through PPPOE from my modem to my ISP.I need to ssh from outside of my home to my home, But i don't know to use which connection between my computer and my modem.(dhcp ,static , bridge or ....)
I have an ADSL line that allows me for maximum of 4 concurrent users with external IP addreses. The IP addresses are not static (they change every 3-4days).
My current setup is as follows: * A-link Roudrunner 44B Modem connected to the main line * D-Link DI524 Router (port 1) connected to the modem * This leaves me with 3 ports and Wireless for my other machines
What I wish to do is: * Have all my machines with static IP addresses for LAN * still have internet connection
I've tried enabling DHCP on the D-Dlink Router with LAN IP 192.168.0.1 and IP range from 192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.199. Then gave my machine static IP 192.168.0.101, subnet 255.255.255.0 and gateway 192.168.0.1....obviously it didn't work. I've tried the above with both the modem being connected to the router via port1 and WAN port... but I have the same results. I also tried to do the same without the router (direct connection between the PC and modem) still got the same results. Could it be that what I am trying to do is not technically not possible due to my ISP setup to ensure no more than4 concurrent users limit is in place.
I'm a beginner in Ubuntu, I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. Currently using a Dlink GLB-802c router and using a ADSL connection. I try to connect to the Internet but it is unsuccessful. Ubuntu is not indicating my router when I connect to the PC.
My PC is P4 and using USB to connect to internet, PC haven't a Ethernet interface.
I'm using ubuntu 8.04 . Each time I return form suspend mode, the network icon in the right upper conner show a sign "!", which maybe mean there's limited network connection as in windwos. How can I solve this problem?
I have 2 pcs at home. I dont have a switch so I can connect only one PC at a time to my adsl router/modem for internet access. In the past I had successfully connected the two PCs (NIC to NIC) to each other using the same ethernet cable which was supplied with my dlink adsl modem.
Recently the motherboard of on of my PC went bad so I replaced it with a new one. The problem is when I connect the two using the same Ethernet cable they won't connect. The lights on the Ethernet port won't light up. I can still connect both of them to the adsl router (NIC to Router) (one at a time).
I want to configure my ADSL but I don't know what should I do. Can you explain me How can I configure it?(I use fc10, ethernet cable <Asus Am608 ADSL modem)
My broadband internet connection came with a Nokia-Seimens C2110 Adsl modem. Please help me connect the modem through USB cable as the ethernet card is used to connect my computer(Asus- P5RD2 VM motherboard) to a different computer on LAN. I am in a fix and have no clue how to proceed.
I use an atom based processor of 1.60 ghz on intel d945gclf board. My ram is a zion 1gb @ 533mhz. Hdd is from western digital 80gb @ 7200 rpm. I have a broadband(dsl) connection from bsnl dataone (a state owned telecom service provider). I connect to internet via a huawei wa1003a ethernet/usb/wireless modem which is provided by my service provider. I need a username and a password everytime i connect to internet via dial-up.
I was using windows xp service pack ii. It was nice and easy installing my modem on xp either via usb or ethernet. Both ways it was easy as i have both the drivers with me.Only and main problem was fighting viruses. I tried many free downloadable anti-virus software to protect my maching. Initially they were fine. But after few months they stopped taking regular updates and became non-functional. I also tried symantec corporate v.10. But it has its drawbacks also. It made my machine perform like a snail.I had previously heard about linux based operating systems. But never tried one. As i am an ameteur in using computers windows xp was suiting my needs. Recently i saw an article in the newspaper about ubuntu which is a free open source operating system. And most important to me it is virus free.But here is a problem also. I cannot connect to internet. My ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala is not identifying my modem and a network between my modem and my machine cannot be established. Also i cannot create a dial-up option where i can give username and password.
For some reason Ubuntu 8.04 doesn't save my college network settings, so I have to connect manually each time. This is what I physically have to do to connect:
1) Click on network manager icon in the notification area 2) Click "connect to other wireless network" 3) Type in "NETWORK_NAME" into network name area field 4) Select WPA enterprise under wireless security 5) Type in "USERNAME" into username field 6) Type in "PASSWORD" into password field
So what I would like to know: is there any command line equivalent for the above six steps? I would like to write a script which will carry out the above six steps for me automatically, using the parameters NETWORK_NAME, USERNAME and PASSWORD.
I have a desktop PC running Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7, and a Eee PC 701 laptop running EasyPeasy Ubuntu 9.04. I'd like to connect the desktop to the laptop with a wired connection (eth0), then the laptop to my ADSL router using wireless (ath0).
I have a crossover ethernet cable (I bought on ebay). I have set up my laptop with a static IP address on my LAN and it uses OpenDNS.
I have added this to /etc/sysctl.conf on the laptop:
This is a variation on what I found on other sites describing how to set up a router. I don't understand iptables very well, but I gather that the above two lines should set up forwarding so that traffic from my router to the laptop will be forwarded to the desktop, and vice versa.
But this doesn't work. The connection doesn't even establish between the laptop and the desktop.
I hosed my installation of F14 by installing from some "experimental" repositories. Now I only get XDM at startup and an xterm on login. This would be fine if I could use yum to do some updates, but I have no network connection. I have been over the man page for nmcli dozens of times and none of the options there seems to start anything. I have also tried starting dhclient or using:
ifconfig eth0 up Nothing. So, is there a reliable way I can just connect to the network? This shouldn't be so hard.
I'm trying to connect to a wifi network where it hijacks all requests and redirects you to a page where you have to agree to a terms of use before it lets you connect to the actual outside world. This is a pretty common practice, and usually doesn't pose much of a problem. However, I've got a computer running Ubuntu 9.10 server with no windowing system. How can I use the command line to agree to the terms of use? I don't have internet access on the computer to download packages via apt-get or anything like that. Sure, I can think of any number of workarounds, but I suspect there's an easy way to use wget or curl or something.
Basically, I need a command line solution for sending an HTTP POST request essentially clicking on a button. For future reference, it'd be helpful to know how to send a POST request with, say, a username and password if I ever find myself in that situation in another hotel or airport.
After reinstall Ubuntu 10.04 LTS didn't recognize my ADSL router Billion 400 G.The Ethernet 1 led is off after booting.Search on web for help on this but no good results.You good people now are my last resort.I tried boot in live CD and result is the some.Check with sudo lshw.
i've installed debian lenny 5.0.4 in my hp laptop,using an officiel cd , i've installed ppp, pppoe, pppoeconf to configure an adsl connection (the dhcp is automatically configured on eth0)the trouble is : that ifconfig works fine, but when i want to connect it is impossible , this is my interfaces file:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
i've gotten my fedora 12 to the point where i can run python3 scripts from command line and can call up python 2.6.2 idle with the command 'idle' from command line. what command will call up python3 (3.1.2 to be exact) idle?
