I connect to internet as lots of linux users do by a proprietary router,quick and easy no fuss .I have a nortek2021 modem and i got from flashtux both eciadsl-usermode and eciadsl-sync packets.Nortek2021 is supported by eciadsl. I mamage to connect to my isp Code: local IP address 82.57.123.118 remote IP address 192.168.100.1 primary DNS address 85.37.17.11 secondary DNS address 85.38.28.69 Connection successful [EciAdsl 5/5] Setting up route table... Waiting for ppp0... Removing existing default route (eth0)... Adding default route... default route added: ppp0 But i don't know what to do after .Routes are ok Code: root@argo:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.100.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.100.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 but if i launch a ping to goole.it Code: root@argo:~# ping www.google.it ping: unknown host www.google.it Dnses are set and i don't see ppp0 in /etc/network/interfaces ... I don't know who ever used the eaciadsl drivers from flashtux i posted also in their forums but what do i do after the connection is successful how do i deal dnses reslution ?
I could be wrong, but to me it looks like the local and remote IP address are reversed. Normally local is a 192.168 address and 82 is an official Internet IP address. But I'm not familiar with this modem, so I could be wrong as to their terminology.
It's alice's (my isp) router,they use a reserved address for a pubblic server .But maybe it's not pubblic but reserved to alice's customers and we are all natted like a big family lan .....
