Hello. Recently after rebooting from Windows to Gentoo, I noticed I had no internet access. My router, which is set to give my mac address the same IP (192.168.0.104), seems to have decided NOT to do this anymore. Nothing has changed in my settings on either my computer or the router. I get the same thing for every OS (Gentoo LiveCD, Gentoo installed, SuSE installed) besides windows. I'm totally stumped. Sometimes eth0 gets enabled at startup but gets no IP (SuSE), other times (Gentoo & Gentoo LiveCD) it doesn't and I have to run ifconfig eth0 up.
Running "route add eth0 192.168.0.1" returns "eth0: Host name lookup failure" ifconfig returns: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:17:18:D5:4A UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:498 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:2 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:152940 (149.3 Kb) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:19 base address:0xe000 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:16 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:16 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1188 (1.1 Kb) TX bytes:1188 (1.1 b) Any help would be apreciated, I'm stumped. -- Samuel (shardz) Shardz's Igloo: shardz.homelinux.net Registered Linux User #410639 amarok.kde.org defectivebydesign.org usmc.mil
