Hello All,

This weekend I finally jumped to the wireless world. The problem was that I
tried two different routers (linksys and d-link) unsuccessfully. With both
of them, I could get an ip in the routers, but could not get online. I could
ping my nic card, could ping the router, but could not ping the outside
world. I worked with tech support from both router companies and RCN my
cable modem supplier, with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions on how
I might get the router working. I have the d-link turbo g router and am
running xp professional.


Best,

Subject: [BAWUG] TrueMobile 1150 Netstumbler problem


I'm using a Dell TrueMobile 1150 (rebranded Orinoco) card under Windows 2000 for some wardriving. The card works great at my house, but I drove around for 2-3 blocks and didn't pick anything up but my AP.

I later realized that Netstumbler was only detecting SSIDs which I had
defined in my TrueMobile
client manager program.  I tested this by going to a location where I know
two SSIDs exist.  I
fired up Netstumbler and selected one of the SSIDs in the client manager and
Netstumbler detected
it.  Now, when I switched SSIDs in the client manager program, Netstumbler
no longer detected the
1st AP and now detected the other instead.

Needless to say, this kind of set up is pretty useless for wardriving since
it will only lists
SSIDs in Netstumbler that are defined in the client manager program.  I've
tried unloading the
client manager, and removing it from Windows startup and rebooting but none
of it seemed to help.
I haven't tried uninstalling it, because AFAIK that's the only way for me to
configure my wireless
card under Windows 2000.

Any advice?

Hi Chuck,

Have you checked your default route? If you can ping the router and log in to it's administration page over the wireless connection, but can't get to any hosts on the Internet then it sounds like your problem is there. I find it hard to believe that could be a problem with both routers, unless you're assigning the IP address on your client manually and forgot your default gateway.

Try running tracert -d 216.239.39.99 and see where your packets start dropping off.

Fred
