Router config woes

[mzilikazi]

Can you pingthe router i.p. provided in the instructions? If not Try to find the router on your network with nmap. For example:

# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:08:C7:77:54:93  
          inet addr:192.168.254.2

So with this range of i.p. address in mind we might try something like this:

# nmap 192.168.254.*
