This looks wrong. IIRC, the default Linksys IP address is 192.168.1.1,
which should be your gateway.
Try changing it to 192.168.1.1 and doing

and see if that works.

Howdy all,
I'm looking for an extremely Linux-friendly laptop to set up as a
traveling demo system. The laptop has to have a wireless card, as I will
need it to run in ad-hoc mode so that it can act as a wireless AP for
other devices.
The system is going to serve DHCP and tftp to wireless devices
I've received two different responses to this request - both of which
seem to work just fine. My thanks to those who responded. I'm a little
curious if one solution has any advantages over the other:
Solution 1:
user="username"
f=`eval "echo ~${user}"`
Solution 2:
user="username"
f=`getent p
Somthing like this perhaps?
$ user="quantum"
$ f=`getent passwd $user|cut -f6 -d:`
$ echo $f
