Ubuntu Networking :: PC Router Between Wireless And Ethernet Interface
Sep 2, 2010
I tried to setup a connection as below but face some problem (probably route table setting incorrect). Hope if anyone could shed the light.Basically, I have a PC1 (.1) and PC2 (.130) connected via a PC router. PC router has 2 interfaces: wireless (.2) and ethernet (.129). PC1 connects to PC router via LAN cable/wireless interface, while PC2 connects to PC router via cable. This settings try to simulate 1 wireless connection along the path (and because PC2 is too old to support wireless interface, we need a PC router). These interfaces are all under same 172.16.130.x subnet.

I'm having trouble getting my Ubuntu 10.04 machine (Sony Vaio VGN-SR490) to connect to the Internet by way of an Ethernet cable connected directly to my router.
I'm able to connect to the Internet using this same cable using a Windows machine, so there's something wrong with the way Linux is configured.
How do I got about figuring out what the problem is and solving it?
Here are my network settings on Linux:
$ ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
[Code].....
It looks like the network adapters list is empty. I will now install both Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux dual-boot. I'm still not able to access the internet, even through Windows. I'm wonder if this could be a hardware problem with the computer or a problem with the router itself. Other computers can connect to this same router, and work fine. (That's how I'm posting this after all!)

My son lost his USB Wireless stick for his Computer. I had thought I heard that if you had a second wireless router, you could use it somehow to detect the wireless router you have already set up in your home (like using a wireless card)? Is this what Ad-Hoc is? Either way, can this be done and if so how? I use a WRT54Gx2 Lynksys router and have a TRENDNET TEW-432BRP wireless router and also a spare D-link DI-514. I use ubuntu 10.04, and also wanted to know if I connected one of the router to his on the LAn port could he connect msaybe through an Ad-Hoc on my local computer here? He uses XP on his. I'm a newbie to linux and networking in general.

I moved my server and network equipment, and now the wireless works but I cannot get my server online. I host a website, so this is kind of urgent.
I have a wireless router and can access the internet fine on my laptop. My server is wired & connected to the router. It sets up the networking properly.. ifconfig has an ip address, the default gateway is present. But I cannot ping google, or even the router. It says destination host unreachable.
So I go back to the laptop to check the router settings.. sometimes it likes to assign the server the wrong internal ip. But, I can't access the router settings either! The page (192.168.1.1) times out. Same with trying to ping the router. How can the laptop be online if it can't reach the router?
Oddly, ifconfig on my laptop reports an ip address starting with 99.233. It's always given me an internal address starting with 192.168. What's going on here? Is the router not allocating an internal ip? I use wicd to connect, if it's relevant.
We have a windows laptop that can only get a "local connection". Now it does sound like the router is forwarding directly to my laptop, instead of allocating internal ips.

I've a server with two NIC. Sometimes the server becomes unreacheable. When this happens, I did a reboot and then it works.. but when looking at the interface status (with ifconfig command), I've notice several "errors".So, I've tried to change NIC.. but the problem occurs again.I've also changed the port on the switch.

I'm trying to create EoIP interface on ubuntu so i can create a simple tunnel to my mikrotik router. Is there anyone know how or even done that? If EoIP is not possible, is there any other simple way?
I had already read and thought about doing it with OpenVPN, but when I read the community documentation for OpenVPN on ubuntu 10.10, I fear it won't connect the tunnel to mikrotik OpenVPN server, since OpenVPN on ubuntu uses 2 certificate and 2 key files(as i read on the docs), but mikrotik configuration, i can see only 1 certificate can be applied on. This confuses me and make me decide to use EoIP(but i can't find any tutorial/docs about it). I don't actually need the encryption and security, i just need to create a tunnel for ubuntu and mikrotik.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 on my desktop and the 70-persistent-net.rules file seems to be ignored. The ethernet interfaces are randomly shuffled around on boot (i have 4 interfaces). The original one was configured to have a static IP address (eth0). Is there anything that prevents the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules from being applied/used?

I'm just installed Fedora 14 64-bits into a server which come with Multiple network interfaces, I'm found that the naming of each network interface is not in sequences in what I'm thought (e.g: the on board network interfaces name as Eth5 and Eth6, the additional card ethernet port name from Eth0 - Eth1 and etc). How to name the interfaces as what I wish to? What should I install to allow me to rename the interfaces.

My old G USB network stick died and I also cannot get my internal ethernet to pick up my router. I've tried installing ndiswrapper, but I keep getting prompted to insert the installation cd for ubuntu's Jaunt Jackalope, which is what I am currently operating. I don't have an installation disk. I installed this version a while ago via usb stick (which I no longer have). Is there any way I can install ndiswrapper without having to use a ubuntu installation disk? I'm hoping installing ndiswrapper will solve my inability to connect wirelessly to the net via either my ethernet card of the new NetGear N100 usb network stick I just purchased.

I recently installed Ubuntu via "wubi", and tried to set up the Wireless. After looking at a few threads, they suggested using an Ethernet cable to troubleshoot the problem. However, my laptop does not detect the router even via an Ethernet cable. I am running 64 bit(It auto-downloaded with wubi) on an Acer Aspire 5553G, and my router is a Netgear DG834G. I have an Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit controller, a Broadcom 802.11n Network adapter and TAP Win32 Adapter V9.

I have installed Fedora 14 about 4 days ago. I have set all the networking parameters like dns path, hostname etc. I have also ensured that I select the check-box for "Enable automatically when system starts" for eth0 interface. But weirdly, whenever I boot my system(or restart), I see that the interface eth0 is disabled. I have to manually enter as root and enable it, each time I boot/reboot my system. Why is this happening? Could you please suggest a way so that I have eth0 interface enabled always when I boot up?Also, my domainname also is not boot-persistent. What steps should I take to ensure that the domainname set once persists across reboots?

I want to set up a Linux box as a wireless router to replace our existing Netgear WNR1000 router, as I believe the Netgear does not support the coming IPv6 protocol. Unfortunately, it is not flashable with OpenWRT or DD-WRT presently.
As we have Comcast, our cable modem acts as a dumb modem according to the customer support guy I talked to, and our router is the one that asks for the IP address from DHCP. Thus, when Comcast switches over to IPv6, I don't believe my existing router would work, correct?
My idea is to take a Linux box and put two NICs and a wireless adapter in it, using IPCop or Smoothwall to set up a router. I could then enable IPv6 support for when we have IPv6 with Comcast. Is that possible? Would there be a way to get BIND to hand out private IP addresses in the same subnet on the both the LAN NIC and the wireless card?

I changed to a 4 port ethernet router (D-Link DSL-2542B Adsl2+)with intention to share Internet access with my brother (he's on Vista).Initially it all went well,but 3 days ago there were connection problems occured on the part of the ISP. Without realized the problem,I had reset the router.This morning I've been informed by the ISP that the connection has been re-established.So,I accessed the Internet via the 4 port router but failed to do so (server not found).Suspecting that the problem was from the 4 port router,I reverted to my old Adsl router (DSL-520B single port) and without any problem I managed to access the Internet back.I really need help to configure back the 4 port ethernet router to its initial state.

On FC10, when system boots up, it would auto detect (from DHCP) and configure eth0.
This does not happen on FC11, but I can manually configure the interface. The entries in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 are identical on both OS releases.
Don't know if this is related, but when I run System->Administration->Bootloader, it fails system-config-boot - missing module kudzu.

So I keep reading that bonding ethernet devices is supposed to be easy. I have followed several tutorials and tried a few things on my own, and I can't seem to get it right. I currently have a setup that allows me to ping internally on my network, but when I try to ping externally I get the error:

I am using RHEL6 on a server with 3 interfaces.
eth0 is connecting via a Cisco switch to the outer world and eth1 and eth2 to internal networks.
eth1 and eth2 are working without problems all the time, however I have the following incident with eth0: although it is RUNNING, and after it works for some time (like some hours), it then becomes incapable of sending/receiving traffic. Here are more details, after the interface exits the RUNNING state:
[root@mgt ~]# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E4:1F:13:6C:87:74
inet addr:9.162.91.26 Bcast:9.162.91.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::e61f:13ff:fe6c:8774/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[Code]....
I am wondering whether there this is because there is not traffic for some time and so the interface goes to idle. Is there any parameter I can tweak in RHEL6 to force the interface to remain RUNNING even in the absence of traffic (although I would be expecting that some 802.1 packets would be periodically flowing from the switch to the interface)?

I have a Debian computer with 2 network interfaces. Ath0 for wifi and eth0 for cable.
They're configured as dhcp and are getting their ip from different routers. When I shut down one of the router, it takes 5 minutes for the ip address to "Go away". I would like this to take a shorter time. I figured it must be a setting, but my attempts so far have been unsuccessfull. Is there a way to do this?
I'm using dhcp3-client (dhclient) as my client.

The challenge: I am trying to setup a piece of hardware that is transparent to the network that transfers ip packets between two interfaces without adding a "hop". Details The particular problem I'm having is that one interface is ppp, the other is ethernet. It is trivial to setup a bridge between two ethernet devices but I am having trouble finding anything for ppp<->ethernet.
Here, the ppp link is an internet connection, and the ethernet connection has exactly one device attached. Once the ppp link is negotiated, I want the ppp peer to think it's talking directly with the device on my ethernet interface and I want the device on my ethernet interface to think it's talking directly to the ppp peer.
Current solution: The best solution I currently have is to alter the routing table. When the ppp link is negotiated, I am given an ip address. I add a route that directs everything to that ip address to the eth0 device. I also set a default route to the ppp device. Now, anything that comes from the ethernet side gets forwarded to the ppp side, and anything directed towards my ip address gets forwarded to the eth0 side.

I'm having trouble getting my network set up the way that I want it/had it. You see, when I first set up my network, I just had my cable modem going directly to my standard wired router (A D-Link DI-604), which had DHCP,and was connected to all of the computers on my network. I had one switch hooked up to one of the ports of the router, but this was a regular switch, and it would not try to assign IP addresses, it would just pass through the DHCP info as I wanted.
Now however, my network setup has changed. My room mate and I both got laptops, and we decided that we wanted to have wireless access so we didn't have to constantly plug in to the router.
Now my network is set up like this: The modem is hooked up to the router(DI-604), which is hooked up on the LAN side to our computers, our switch (which is hooked up to 3 more computers), and to a wireless router card (A Gigabyte GN-BC01).
The wireless router card has two jacks for ethernet. One for WAN, and one for LAN. The LAN side we have plugged only into the computer in which the card is installed.
Now the problem is this: The wireless router card comes with DHCP by default, and it's assigning addresses to the laptops and to the computer hat it's in, and worse, the IP addresses are on a different subnet than that of the main dlink router. The Main (dlink) router assigns addresses from 192.168.0.1 (itself) to 192.168.0.254, while the wireless router card assigns addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 (itself).
Because of this, I cannot access services on the wireless network from my wired network or vice versa. The first thing I tried was setting the card to assign addresses from 192.168.0.12 to 192.168.0.253, however it just said "internal error" when I tried to do this. I decided that this may be because it sees that it was being assigned an address on it's WAN side on the same subnet. So the next thing I tried was disabling DHCP and setting the "LAN IP Address" to 192.168.0.12, hoping that the DHCP would just go through the card, like a switch. I would have set the LAN IP address to be assigned by DHCP, but this was not an option, so I decided that'd be the best thing to set it to.
Once again however, setting the LAN ip address to an address on the same subnet as that of the IP assigned to it's WAN side caused it to report an "internal error". I verified that this was the issue by setting the LAN address to several other private IP addresses to test (I.E. 10.0.0.1, 192.168.3.1, 192.168.5.12).
My question then really is: How do I set up both routers so that I can access services and computers from each network from the other network. Should I set them with different subnets and set the gateway on the wireless network to the main router? To the wireless router card? Should I put them on the same subnet? Will it know how to communicate?
Here is a link to (picture) my network diagram. Network Diagram

I have been working with Linux for about 10 years and I have a good understanding of IPv4 networking and routing but not so much detailed knowledge of implementation or specific networking packages.
I have a Linux system running a custom-built (Linux from Scratch) distribution and using 2.6.15 kernel. My system has 4 Ethernet controllers (eth0, eth1, eth2, and eth3). I have intentionally left out support for forwarding/routing of packets as this machine is not intended to be a router and I specifically do not want it to be able to so. My intent for the machine is to function as a server to 4 different and separate networks without allowing traffic or hosts on one LAN to access or adversely affect those on the other LANs.
My main question: is there a way to completely isolate the connections to these LANs and if so, how might I achieve it, and through what packages?
I have been having some issues:
1) Default gateway. With only a single default gateway, network requests from a LAN that is not directly connected to one of the 4 NICs and for which there may not be a static route defined, may send a response to the default gateway which is on one of the LANs connected to a different NIC than the one that I received the initial request on. Is there anyway to isolate outgoing messages to only go out on the NIC that the corresponding request was received through?
2) Default gateways. I have a requirement to allow DHCP on these interfaces. It is possible that the DCHP servers on each of the 4 LANs may provide a default gateway, but I don't see how I can make use of that. I know that there is a way to configure multiple default gateways via the iproute2 package (which is what I am using) but I don't know how to make sure that the correct default gateway is used for requests that were received on a specific interface.

Im new to this Cent OS as well as Unix based Operating Systems. Please help me with the below requirement.My Company is a Serach based data collector from different websites like Google, Yahoo & many more..Collecting the data from the search engines is a issue for right now.. As many search engines are blocking us to search and retrive the date after some time.. Taking Google as example : Google Blocks my IP after every 30 mins of retriving.. Application is a Windows based & using Windows 2003 as the Server.. Would like to give a Dynamic IP to the Windows Server via 1st Ethernet Card & enable the 2nd Ethernet for the Internet..Eg : eth 0 = 192.168.1.1eth 1 = x.x.x.x (Public IP)I have check with few of my friends who told me to get Linux or Cent OS installed to do a interface disable after given time & enable a secondary device or virtual interface the next couple of seconds... Like eg : eth 1 = x.x.x.1 eth 2 = x.x.x.2 eth 3 = x.x.x.3 so on.. Would like the eth 1 to be down after 60 mins & eth 2 o be up & again after 60 mins of up time eth 2 down & eth 3 up.

I have just installed ubuntu 10.04 using the wubi installer to dual-boot my machine. Under ubuntu, I am not able to connect to the internet or my router. Everything works fine under windows. I have tried to find relevant information in the forums, but nothing seems to work for me. I have tried disabling ipv6, setting a static ip, but no go. ifconfig shows no IP, dhclient results in no DHCP offers and pinging my router's IP results in Network is Unreachable.
