I bought a wired broadband dsl router to provide another layer of security for my computer running ubuntu. I just plugged it in without installing any software etc. It blocks the internet connection.

Every time I turn on my ubuntu box, it somehow kills our internet connection... yes, even through the router. The internet will not work until I call tech support and they run a line test. Then it works again as if by magic. I'm at a loss. A friend suggested maybe ubuntu is trying to establish itself as the dhcp server on the network? I have ubuntu 9.04, 32-bit, workstation.

I can connect to the wireless router, however. Same problem for the Apple Macs in the house. We called Dlink. The fix for a Mac was to add DNS servers (4.2.2.2) under TCP/IP But there doesn't seem to be anywhere to specify a DNS server in Ubuntu.

After moving back home the connection worked on and off for a day before not working at all. NetworkManager is telling me that I am connected and have an ip address, etc, but nothing is able to get an internet connection. I am able to ping myself but am not able to ping my router. Everything works fine on M$ and other PC's on the network, it's just my ubuntu 10.04 that is playing up.

I think I may lack some drivers, to what I think is Broadcom b43, but I am not sure. I tried to download the drivers on my other computer, and transfered them to the Asus. I managed to install 2/4 drivers, but on the two others, I get this message "Failed to fetch ... Couldn't reach archive.ubuntu.com"
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.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have internet access through 3G/4G USB dongle direct into my Ubuntu 10.04 box. Works great! Now I would like to share this connection out through my Netgear WGR614 wireless (and wired) router. Any clues? I've tried the simple (GUI) instructions using Network Manager, but just can't seem to get it right. Previously, I had DSL and this plugged nicely into the WGR614 and internet and ethernet access was had by all. Now, I'm a bit confused on how to get the sharing (ethernet and wireless) between my Ubuntu box and the wired/wireless network while at the same time getting Internet access to all through the Ubuntu box.

View 8 Replies View RelatedThe problem isn't with thew new computer but with my computer running Ubuntu. The problem is that I'm having trouble getting the Internet to work. Before the router I just plug my PC straight into the modem but now with the router I can't get on the Internet. I can get a connection to the router but no Internet. I know the it is not the router because I use my PS3 and it worked fine. I spend like an hour just trying to get the connection but can't figure out the Internet problem. What I did to get the connection is copy the ip address, Mac, and etc. from the PS3. Then I made a new connection and put the data in the IPV4 settings and it got a connection but I'm not sure if I did that right or just got lucky

I have an adsl modem acting as a bridge to my router my setup was working well for more than year now , but then the internet went slow . I set the modem back to PPPoE the problem was with the DNS server of the ISP so using ifup i set the dns t 8.8.8.8 (google) the connection is back , but when i set the modem back as a bridge slow internet does the router know that my dns is 8.8.8.8 or i should set the dns on the router ? I can't see an option to set the dns on the router ( i just enter my username and password from the isp to use PPPoE mode ) by the way i called the isp support they kept telling me to restart , i told them i did but i never restarted my pc . I'm sure if i tell them i'm running linux they will blame the os !
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been using the denyhosts software for about 8 months to block IPs that are trying to connect to my network that shouldn't be. I'm having trouble with it today for the first time and I can't track down the issue.It is installed on the main server which is the outside IP for the network as well. This should allow me to SSH to the hostname/network IP, or the NAT IP as well. It worked fine up until this morning when I started to work on an ftp server, as far as I know I didn't make any changes that should cause problems.
hosts.deny starts with no 192.x.x.x addresses in it. In allowed-hosts for denyhosts I have entered 192.168.1.1 so that the router should never get blocked.I can SSH to the hostname perfectly fine, connection doesn't drop or anything.If I SSH to the NAT address the connection hangs there while the IP address gets added to hosts.denyI can confirm 100% that I was able to SSH to my NAT from within the network with no problem, now it seems to throw the router IP into hosts.deny if I try to connect from within the network using the NAT.Here is the error that I get in /var/log/securesshd[9272]:d not receive identification string from 192.168.1.1I did update my system recently which may have changed the way some files behave, I will try updating Denyhosts as well. It looked like the address being blocked was an IPv6 since it was showing as:sshd[9201]: refused connect from ::ffff:192.168.1.1 (::ffff:192.168.1.1)

Dlink router with all of the settings made properly. i read somewhere about doing a whole bunch of stuff but i thought that since this was a higher version they would have that problem fixed. i also have aim or msn whichever is more preferred. i hopefully will be notified that someone has responded to this thread.
I am having problems connecting to my new router. It just does not appear in the list of connections under Network Manager. It is not a problem with my laptop's wireless adapter as I can connect to another wireless router. It is also not a problem with the router itself - my Nintendo Wii can pick it up over Wi-Fi and use it and that is further away from the router. It also works if I ethernet it straight into the laptop.The router was provided by Sky Broadband and is a D-Link, pretty standard type of ADSL router with four ethernet ports, wireless and telephone cable socket. I am using the default settings for the SSID and network key, as well as the encryption type (WPA).Ubuntu version = 10.04. The wireless adapter is a very standard issue onboard Intel device but as I say, I can connect to my old Belkin wireless router no problem.

View 1 Replies View Relatedi recently had to switch routers because my old one didnt work anymore. i have a dual boot machine with win7 for games and natty narwhal (64-bit) for everything else. i'm quite new to ubuntu, i know how to navigate the menu, change settings, install things, just the basic stuff. i dont know how to use the terminal yet except some basic commands for installing and updating software.
after my router swap, my connection for windows was back, although i had to pull out the network cable and plug it back in for this to happen. unfortunately my connection in ubuntu is still gone. i see the connection in network manager, but i cant access the internet through it. i tried setting up a new one with the same settings, to no avail. i connect to the internet directly through my router. i tried finding some documentation for it but havent had luck with that. is there some way to reset the connection? or let ubuntu set up a new one like when i'm doing a fresh install? i think that ubnuntu still thinks i'm using the old router and that this is the cause for the connection fail.
I'm still kind of a linux newb, so I might just be missing a little bit of knowledge here, but I've been having some real problems getting my machine to connect to my wireless network under Ubuntu 9.04.
Here are my basic specs:
Intel Pentium™ 4 CPU @2.66 GHz
1.5 GB RAM
3 HDDs: 1 40GB Maxtor internal, 1 320GB WD internal, 1 160GB Maxtor USB external.
OSes: Windows XP Home Edition (on Maxtor internal drive) Ubuntu 9.04 (on WD internal drive)
I don't think my video card would make any difference, so I won't list it on here...
Anyway, what happens is I try to connect (I select the network SSID from the pull-down list in the NetworkManager panel menu), and it seems to connect okay to the router, but I can't get out to the net. I can pull up a terminal and ping the router's address, but I get a "Destination Host Unreachable" message. It's as if, to the computer, the router isn't even there on that level, but it can still somehow connect to it.
Now, here's the strange part. If I reset the router from another (Windows) computer on the network (specifically, the one with a wired connection to it), then I can connect just fine and I can get out to the internet.
Even if you don't know specifically, but have some good ideas as to what might work, that's fine too. I hate having to do this every day, as it affects everyone's internet connection. Granted, it's not like I'm in a strict business situation with tons of machines and multiple access points, but there are 3 of us in the house and we all share internet access from the same router (as I'm sure most people do), and I feel kind of guilty having to interrupt everyone's connection, if even only for about 30 seconds just so I can get a net connection under Linux.
Windows connects to the router/internet just fine, btw. No problems there. I'm also using a NetGear WN111 USB wireless adapter, with the Windows drivers under ndiswrapper.
I tried to install Xubuntu 10.10 Maverick as dual boot on my laptop. However when xubuntu is on, I can't find a way to connect to internet.

Previously posted under "Wireless Connection Can't Even Ping Router".I've been using Ubuntu for two years. About a year ago I switched to Kubuntu because I prefer the KDE desktop. Two weeks ago I bought a new laptop: Dell Vostro v13. I installed Kubuntu 9.10 from the live CD and everything worked! Well, almost. I also set up a home wireless network with a new Belkin N+ router from WalMart. When I try to connect to my router, the Plasma Network Manager reports that I'm connected and the assigned IP address, but I'm not truly connected! I can't even ping my own router, all packets are lost.
This problem is intermittent, sometimes I connect fine. I dual-boot with Windoze7 and it connects without problems. Also, if I connect with Windoze, then re-boot into Kubuntu, it seems to "wake-up" the connection somehow and it works. I might also add that I connect without difficulty to other routers in my neighborhood, at work, in airports, etc.My old laptop was also running Kubuntu 9.10, and it connected to the Belkin router without problems, although it was a different wireless card and driver. I also tried Ubuntu 9.10 from the live CD and it also reported a connection, IP address, etc. I couldn't ping the router from that connection either!
Dual boot Vista Basic and Ubuntu 10.04 on low spec PC. I can connect to the wireless when I am next to it. I move to the room where the computer is normally used and I lose connection. I can still see it but it fails to establish a connection. Okay, sounds like it's just too far way but when I re-boot and use Vista, it works fine (1 or 2 bars, but it works). Is this a driver issue? Anything I can do apart from move my wireless router?
View 9 Replies View Relatedi'm totally new to Linux and Ubuntu. I own a huawei 3g modem through which I connect to the internet. I plan to share the internet from that connection between my Vista pc and another pc running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. The computer I plan to use to share the internet, let me call it Server, is equalling running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. My Server perfectly recognises my modem and connects to the internet using it and I can browse.
I plan to connect the routers internet port to my Server using my servers network card. Then i intend to let the router do the sharing of the internet to the other computers on its own. I don't have any idea how to go about doing this. Originally, I tried a direct connection between my Server and the other pc running Lucid Lynx without bothering with the router and using the following settings which i found on an online tutorial:
Server ip 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
and no gateway
then on the client
client ip 192.168.0.5
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
I used open DNS servers for the DNS
However, i was unable to browse the internet from the client even though a connection between the two was established. Then I thought to myself, why go through this trouble, I have a router so why not go ahead and use it. But then I do not know how to do that. Using the router will enable me to effortlessly connect all my computers irrespective of operating system and ease the network creation process.
My ISP pushes software updates occasionally to my router. This also forces the router to restart. When the router restarts, my ubuntu box loses its network connection and does not automatically restore it after the router comes back online.How can I configure ubuntu to restore the connection once it is available again? It happens on my windows workstation...I am using ubuntu on a box with no screen / keyboard / mouse it serves as a fileserver and I remote desktop in. Obviously if the box drops the connection it is a major annoyance. I am using version 9.10
