sync no surf

I’m using openSUSE 11.4 on an older computer.

I can get to my router’s home page wit firefox & I can ping the other computers on my network.

I can not ping off my network on this computer, but all the other computers on the network can do so just fine, as evidenced by me posting this message.

kinda lost at this point.

edit: oh, sorry, I forgot, when I try to ping ip addresses on the internet I get “network is unreachable.”

That is probably a routing problem.

Is the connection ethernet or WiFi? Do you have other network ports on this computer?

Is the connection handled by NetworkManager or by “ifup” startup scripts?

What’s the output from


netstat -rn

Also look at ‘/sbin/route -n’ and look for a route with the G flag set.

Check your default gateway is configured properly.

If you’re cunfiguring manually in YAST is often overlooked because the setting isn’t clearly identified as “Default Gateway” it’s called “router”
