You cannot assign the same IP address (192.168.0.1) to two different network adapters. What's the output ofCode:ifconfig -a iwconfig
Hi,
I finally started running Knoppix Live CD, and everything works great with one exception: I can't connect to the internet. I tried everything, but to no avail. This is wireless, and the router is a D-Link DL-624, and the thing in the recieving end is a Linksys PCI card (B). I ran ifconfig, and this was the result:
I've tried several different things, but nothing works. Can someone please give me a step by step tutorial as to what do do?Code:eth1 Link encap: UNSPEC HWaddr 00-01-08-00-20-01-39-08-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 inet addr: 192.168.0.1 B cast: 192.168.0.255 Mask: 255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MILTICAST MTU: 1500 Metric: 1 RX packets: 0 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 frame: 0 TX packets: 102 errors: 8 dropped: 8 overruns: 0 carrier: 0 collisions: 0 txqueuelen: 1000 RX bytes: 0 (0.0 b) TX bytes: 3672 (3.5 KiB) eth2 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:08:01:08:6A inet addr: 192.168.0.1 B cast: 192.168.0.255 Mask: 255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MILTICAST MTU: 1500 Metric: 1 RX packets: 0 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 frame: 0 TX packets: 0 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 carrier: 0 collisions: 0 txqueuelen: 1000 RX bytes: 0 (0.0 b) TX bytes: (0.0 KiB) Interrupt: 16 Base address: 0xec00 lo Link encap: Local Loopback inet addr: 127.0.0.1 Mask: 255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope: Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU: 16436 Metric: 1 RX packets: 406 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 frame: 0 TX packets: 406 errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 carrier: 0 collisions: 0 txqueuelen: 0 RX bytes: 29007 (28.3 KiB) TX bytes: 29007 (28.3 KiB)

OK I did those two, and these were the results: (and for the sake of my hand while copying it down a lot is abbreviated, but understandable)
ifconfig -a
And for iwconfig:Code:eth0: Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:06:25:1B:AD:5C Broadcast multicast mtu: 1500 metric: 1 RX packets, errors, etc: all 0 TX: all 0 collisions: 0 txqueuelen: 1000 RX+TX bytes: 0 interrups: 9 base address: 0x4000 eth1 same as eth0, except: HWaddr 00:01:08:01:08:6A interrupt: 16 base addr: 0x2c00 eth2 -00 same as eth0 except: Link encap: unspec HWaddr: 00-01-08-00-20-01-39-08-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 TX errors, dropped are 4 no line for interrupt/base addr lo Link encap: local loopback inet addr: 127.0.0.1 Mask: 255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope: host up loopback running MTU: 16436 Metric: 1 RX+TX packets 62, all else 0 coll.+txqueu: 0 RXbytes: 4300 (4.1 KiB), same with TX sit0 Link encap: IPv6-in-IPv4 NOARP MTU: 1480 Metric: 1 RX+TX all 0 coll+txqueu: 0 RX+TX byes: 0
Keep in mind that this was after a reboot.Code:lo: no wireless extensions eth0: IEEE 802.11b ESSID:off/any Nickname: "Broadcom 7301" Mode: managed access point: invalid Bitrate=1 MB/s RTS thr: off Fragment thr: off Link quality, signal level, noise level: 0 RX invalid nwid, crypt, frag: 0 TX excessive retries, invalid misc, missed beacon: 0 eth1, eth2, sit0: same as lo
Thanks.
This doesn't look good, but we can give it try. Log in to the router and disable encryption (we can deal with that later).access point: invalid
mynet= ESSID of your WLANCode:su ifdown eth1 ifdown eth2 iwconfig eth0 essid "mynet" mode Managed channel X dhclient eth0
X=numeric value for channel
By the way: You don't have to type, just use copy & paste.
Few questions: How do I log into the router and disable encryption?Originally Posted by ockham23
How do I determine the ESSID?
How do I determine the value for my channel?
And all 5 of those lines are seperate entries, right?
I'm not an idiot when it comes to computers, I'm just used to the automation of Windows, and how it determines all this automatically. Bear with me, this is all new to me.
Also I can't copy and paste cause I'm writing this on a different computer...and I would do it on the one with Knoppix on it, but I cant connect to the internet and it takes to long to constantly switch OS's.
Thanks again for your patience.
If the OP could give a bit more info on the hardware setup, for example the output of: lspci -v
, we could get a better idea of whats going on, Also the output of lsmod, to see if drivers for a wireless device have been installed.
Do you have a USB thumb drive?Also I can't copy and paste cause I'm writing this on a different computer...and I would do it on the one with Knoppix on it, but I cant connect to the internet and it takes to long to constantly switch OS's
Yeah, didn't think of that.Originally Posted by ockham23
Few questions: How do I log into the router and disable encryption? You need a network cable to connect to it and a password to log in.
How do I determine the ESSID? After login, you can retrieve the router's settings.
How do I determine the value for my channel? Same as above.
And all 5 of those lines are seperate entries, right? Yes, each line is a separate command.
OK I did those two. The outputs were rediculously long, so they are condensed. I will remember to put them on a thumb drive from now onOriginally Posted by rusty
Here is lspci -v
