Public bug reported: On Ubuntu 8.04.2, installed with Wubi-8.04.1-exe under FAT32 D: partition near Win98SE using Broadcom BCM955705A5D-D Ethernet adapter I do not have broadband internet access through a wired router, even if starting the Win98SE it operates perfectly (the Ubuntu were installed also under windows with the same adapter and WUBI installer from the internet).
In the terminal the following report could be obtained: ba...@bandi-desktop:~$ ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:18:0b:08:0c inet addr:192.168.2.102 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::210:18ff:fe0b:80c/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:35 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:144 (144.0 B) TX bytes:4917 (4.8 KB) Interrupt:10 On other Ubuntu 8.04.2 installed the same way (near WinXP) on an other computer where the report were very similar to the above and the router is the same but the Ethernet adapter is a 3Com make and, on a third other computer connected to the same router with the same setup and Ubuntu 8.04.2 near Win98SE using the integrated Realtek Ethernet adapter all is working perfectly. I tested the setup with PING and NETSTAT and the results are attached herebelow. Firefox responds that the web pages could not be accessed, say, no internet access. Did not help nor ifup eth0, nor ifdown eth0. Negative answers. Any hints? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Broadcom BCM5705 Ethernet adapter recognised in Ubuntu 8.04.2 but no internet access https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353265 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
