I am using Ubuntu 10.04, when connected to the ethernet through , Atheros Communications AR8152 v1.1.I can successfully access the internet. But when I try to use the wireless I can connect to the network using Atheros Communications AR9285, but can't access any internet sites. Or ping any other devices on the network.I'm using an Acer Aspire One D260

I managed to configure my W890i phone to get access to internet through an ubuntu-based computer. It's very easy to use the phone to give internet access to the computer, but the opposite is quite more tricky. For that I've done the following
----On the phone---
-Set the USB network option to "through computer", so that the phone uses the computer's internet connection and not the opposite.
-Decide and set "Shared Network" parameters: user, pasword and workgroup.
-In "conectivity-> internet connection" set "allow local network" to "yes"
----On Ubuntu 10.04---
-Install samba, samba-client, smbfs, smbclient, firestarter and dhcp3-server
-Configure Samba (System-> Administration-> Shared folders): same workgroup as in the phone, add new user (the phone), passwd this new user. In my case the user was called "w890i" and the password given was the same.
-Once the phone is connected to the computer through USB (then select "phone mode"), a new connection appears in NetworkManager: usb0.The aim is to create a shared network that gives internet access to this device. Edit the IPv4 parameters of this new connection, set them to Manual and give an IP adress (192.168.0.1) and a subnet mask (255.255.255.0); the rest of the fields are left empty.Connect this network.
-Set firestarter to use dhcp3: sudo ln -sf /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server /etc/init.d/dhcpd
-Launch firestarter and follow the wizard. Set "allow internet shared connection", choose the device for the primary internet access, and then the device for the shared network (usb0). Then change the settings for firestarter: activate DHCP for local network, set IP to the one we gave before (192.168.0.1).
-Open dhcp3-server config file sudo gedit /etc/default/dhcp3-server And set INTERFACES="usb0"
-Set the policies of firestarter: in incoming connections, allow connections from the IP adress given to the phone (192.168.0.1). Then add rules for the ports that need to be open for this connection. I opened HTTP, HTTPS, SMB, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, IMAPS, DHCP for all the connections in the local network.
-Apply policies and start the firewall.
------------
After all this, the phone can access the internet through the computer. Two problems appeared:
1. I couldn't get access to https sites, like webmails. The phone gave a "communication error". But then I tried with Opera instead of the browser built in the phone's firmware, and I could finally get to https sites.
2. I couldn't retrieve mail, neither POP nor IMAP nor IMAPS. I thought it was a firmware problem again, and I tried out several mobile phone email clients written in java, but none of them worked.
So this is at the moment the problem. If I connect from the phone to the internet directly through 3G, the email clients work for all my accounts. I don't think it's a firewall problem, because the ports are opened for this connection
Strangest thing...yesterday my 11.04 box lost the ability to access anything external. I can ssh to the box from outside my network, and all other boxes on my network are fine, but this one box can't hit anything external. If I attempt to ping a site it's doing the same resolution, but no packets are delivered.
Up until yesterday it was running fine, and I didn't make any changes to my home network or install any updates. Totally stumped.
Edit: this is a wired connection with a static internal IP.
DM9, 2GB RAM, 32GB SSD, Ubuntu 10.04 UNR.At Panera and at my local library there is a page that comes up when I try to connect to the Internet that is an agreement page. It comes up with my iPod Touch and with my MacBook. Using my DM9 that page does not come up for me to sign in so I can't get on the Internet.I have had Firefox and Chromium running at different times with the same results. When there is a WEP password or no password it connects. What do I need to do to get connected to the Internet at Panera and the like?

Then I went on the internet on my ubuntu machine machine and went to www.google.com and couldn't connect to the server so i tried linuxquestions and i couldn't connect but i could ping sites. My wired and wireless windows computers worked fine. So I called Comcast (my ISP) and said it was a router issue. So I looked online and it said to disable IPv6 on firefox so I did but that still didn't work.

Some sites (particularly https) take very long time to load . Sometimes I get "Page is taking a long time to load . Reload the page later" message.
Now , this is happening for some http webpages also.
This is not a problem with browser.
I have firefox , chrome , chromium and konqueror installed.
Also I can access all these sites properly from windows so it is not problem with my internet connection either.
I have a question which it believe it is quite simple but I have no clue how to do it... I'm using Fedora 12 and I'm the only Linux machine in my office's LAN... I have Apache (httpd) setup and my co-workers can access the sites perfectly by using my IP address, for example [URL]... So here's the question, how do I setup a domain name so everyone in the LAN can access the sites by typing [URL]..

Im having trouble using my wireless usb dongle. I've installed the software and connected to the web, but i can only access a number of websites.
I can access ....., and watch vids and perform searches on google, bing, yahoo and the like. However when i try and access a site that i have searched for it takes me to the internet providers homescreen and tells me to activate my account or top up my account.
I know i have enough GB left as i recently activated my account and i'm able to use the wireless stick on another computer without any problems on all websites. So this leads me to believe that there is maybe a problem with my browser or security settings, but im not sure what to do.
I dual boot XP and FC14 and have 2 routers. I can connect and ping one of these routers when I'm in FC and I have an IP address I just can't load any websites. When I connect to the other router (my main router) it works fine. When I boot into XP and connect to the problem router I can load pages fine. It's only when I'm on FC14 and connect to the problem router that I can't load pages even though I have an IP and can ping around.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a linux box (fedora) with two ethernet cards eth1 and eth2. On eth1 I successfully configured a PPPOE internet connection. Such that from the server I can browse the internet. On eth2 I wired it to a wireless router essentially to provide the wireless cloud. On eth2 I also configured dhcp, such that the Linux box is both PPPOE and DHCP server.However my clients on the LAN cannot access the Internet.
On passing the routing command I get
Destination Gateway Iface
196.44.x.y 0.0.0.0 ppp0
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 eth2 (my subnet)
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ppp0.
The router (functioning as a wireless access point mainly) has a fixed IP address of 192.168.1.2 and eth2 has IP address 192.168.1.1. The dhcp file running on Linux has been set with option router (Gateway) 192.168.1.1. I cannot figure out how to correctly set the routing table such that my clients on wireless can access the internet cloud. I googled and googled but no solid solution. Any suggestions?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded my HP DV7 to 11.2. I did the install with wired network connection, my WiFi is always on as well. Install went fine, ran updates via YAST. I am running KNetworkManager, it loaded, configured eth0 and wlan0, prompted me for WEP keys and showed both connections working OK. I later found that when eth0 was disconnected, wlan0 was still connected but I could not reach internet sites. My router address was set as the gateway address and the DNS server address. Following several items on the forum, I tried 'dig' and 'route' commands.
I found that

I installed Apache2 and I added a second virtual host, now can i separate the 2 hosts and let them access 2 different internal test sites? For Example lets say"

User2 uses second IP
How can I separate it in Apache2 and in the /var/www ?
I'd like to ask a question on installing software.
I cannot install software using "yum" but I can with the GUI program "Add/Remove Software".
For example, I tried:
It will exhaust all the mirror sites without success.
All the error messages look like:
But I can install "screen.i686" easily from the "Add/Remove Software" GUI and it is very fast.
However, what's puzzling is that I could install some certain packages although I still see the same kind of error messages.
For example,
will work. But in general, "yum" is running very slow and is rejected at every mirror sites.
My settings: I just installed "Fedora 14" (Linux 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686) as a virtual machine (using VirtualBox) on a Windows XP (Professional, SP3) host on my laptop (CPU: Intel Core2 Duo), which accesses internet through a HTTP Proxy server since it is behind a corporate firewall.
I have a Compaq Presario R3000 with Ubuntu 9.10 32 bit that I just installed last night. I'm using a Zyxel G-102 Wireless card and Actiontec GT701WG wireless modem.
When I try to connect to the 'net, the network does show up and it connects strong (100%). It also shows multiple neighbors networks. It pings at 99% success (with over 900 sent as I write this) but when I open Firefox it can't connect, it just times out. I've used WEP security and have switched off security as well. I tried hooking up to the modem via USB and get the same result. It acts like a Firewall issue but there isn't one installed - at least that I can find and the Firewall in the modem is off. I ran FF in root with gksu firefox as suggested in another thread. I tried www.ubuntu.com and the header loaded but that was all. Then it timed out.
I'm new to Linux but have used Puppy Linux with this machine and card, etc. so I know it can/does work with Linux. I wanted a more refined distro and chose Ubuntu.
the bsnl modem cannot access the ubuntu 9.10
