Title: Internet In R121
Post by: Capn_Fish on November 26, 2006, 05:32:18 pm

I just flashed r121 on my C3100. I have an Ambicom WL1100C Wi-Fi card that I am trying to get to work. I used the scripts on the pdaXrom web site, so I have connected to my network and I can ping the other computers on the network, but I can't get to the internet. The new version of Dillo I compiled (on Beta 3, if it's an issue) says that it can't solve (URL here).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Does you organization use DHCP or Static address...

if static you DNS Ip is wrong... if DHCP

run this command

dhcpcd eth0 or whatever interface you are using

It works now. What did that do?

Thanks for your help and quick response!

dhcpcd turned on the DHCP client daemon... it discovers any dhcp servers on the network and retrieves all the IP information for that client (ip, dns, gateway, dhcp lease/exp, etc)

That would make sense.

I actually figured I should change that before you added that.

Anyway, thanks again!
