Good morning!

I'm running Knoppix 4 from the CD and (through some of the excellent posts here) configured my Motorola WPCI810G using ndiswrapper.

The good news is that I can see my AP, ping my dsl modem/router, connect to my IM GAIM, and listen to music from my windows PC's hard drive viewed through SMB! Happy, happy, happy!

The bad news is that although I can ping web addresses, they rarely (+-10%) appear when I navigate to them via Mozilla, and usually time out. Google works in most cases, but links FROM google time out.

Can anyone tell me why I would be able to do other activities, even ping the web sites, but would be timed out when trying to navigate to them?

Here is the output from my iwconfig/ifconfig"

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Solved it!

I disabled IPv6 and now it works perfectly.

Sometimes I wish that URLS would just point to a MAC address...Then I remember how easy it is to spoof your MAC address.
