Modem connects, but I still can't surf the net

[WolfBLN]

Hello!

I gladly got my modem connected to an German ISP, but I still can't surf the net. It seems, the URL is not resolved to the ip address, even though I hit the DNS server addresses into the kppp.

Has anyone an idea?

Thnaks for helping,

Wolf

Try putting this in to you browser:-

http://66.102.11.104/

(this is www.google.de)

If it works then DNS is broken, if it doesn't come back as google then something else is broken.

You could additionally try to ping from commandline - maybe only as root:

ping 66.102.11.104
(Ctrl-C to abort)

ping www.google.de
