Re: [newbie] Connecting to a network with a static IP.

[Marc Resnick]

 

I'll probably go and ask linksys about this too, but first I thought 
I'd turn here.

I want to connect to my network with a static IP. I changed my 
ifcfg-wlan0 file, and made sure the ip addy wasn't within the dhcp 
range. Then, I ifdown'ed and ifup'ed wlan0, and got the IP. 
Unfortunately, I had no internet connection. So then I tried pinging 
the router, and it went fine. Then I tried getting to the http 
router settings. Went fine as well.

Anyone know what the problem is?

 Maybe your router is only source NATting the ip addresses within your dhcp

So how would I fix this, any settings you know of?
