I connect to Internet through VPN. I decided to put a router (D-Link DI-604) to split the connection between several computers. I've managed to make my Mac iBook to work OK with the new setup. Yet my laptop with Debian refuses to connect to Internet. The phenomenology is as follows:
1. I can connect to the router itself at http://192.168.0.1/, I can establish/break connection between the router and my internet provider. 2. Whenever I try to connect to the outside it fails. The brouser (Firefox) says: "... could not be found. Please check the name and try again." 3. The output of different commands are: # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0D:56:DC:30:0F inet addr:192.168.0.105 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:12 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:13 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1682 (1.6 KiB) TX bytes:2020 (1.9 KiB) Interrupt:11 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:102 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:102 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:6540 (6.3 KiB) TX bytes:6540 (6.3 KiB) #killall dhclient # dhclient Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client 2.0pl5 Copyright 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999 The Internet Software Consortium.
