Hi PLUGgers, I have recently got myself a Hathway Broadband connection. They provided me with an ARRIS cable modem for the connection. Their Engineer came and configured the Internet on Windows by inputting the usual IP, DNS, Gateway. However, the same is not working for me on my Ubuntu setup. I even tried installing Kubuntu (both Dapper Drakes), but still, the internet connectivity is not configured. Has anyone faced a similar situation ? Or has anyone managed to get the Internet workig with Hathway Broadband, with the cabel modem ?
Yes, I've seen my friend successfully running Hathway Broadband on Linux. Is you ethernet card working on Linux? Sometimes they don't work out of the box due to lack of drivers. Try running dmesg | grep eth on the terminal. If you don't get any output, it's most likely your ethernet card doesn't have the drivers on Linux. If that's not the problem, check the configuration again (maybe you accidentally mistyped the IPs or something). regards, -- Vaibhav -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
