Hi,

i installed the wireless network with the connect wizard.
(lucid puppy linux )

The driver is loaded, my wlan router is found successfully , i received an IP adress.

But when i make i ping:

The network is unreachable, regardless if i enter eg. pop.web.de or the ip adress directly.

Can anybody help me?

Very Happy Hello,
Does the IP it gives you start with 192 like 192.168.1.123?
Or 255? Mad
Run "net-setup.sh" in a terminal, go thru the GUI steps and watch the terminal for error messages...
Or.
Try "dhcpcd" in a terminal, does it get a 192.xxx.x.x address?

Also, always be specific when asking for assistance..
What version of Puppy?
What kind of wireless card..
Open, wep or wpa??

Hi,

I am using it on Laptop with integrated wlan (ipw2200).

I made what you proposed.

It is very strange thing, that my ip starts with 169.

Very Happy Hello,
169 is the first number of an automatic IPv4 address assigned by TCP/IP when no external networking device is contactable.
Try.
Quote:
ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

Then
ifconfig
again to see if it took...
You can set the gateway like this:
Quote:
route add default gw 192.168.0.253 eth0

You may have the wrong driver, as your wireless should be either wlan0 or card specific like ra0 (for ralink) not eth1, but I have seen eth1 work before, so try the above..

Very Happy Hello,
lsmod

modprobe xxx
probes for a module.
So try
modprobe ipw2200

Been using IPW2200 on Dell laptops for years;
always shows as eth0 or eth1.

Always worked fine on every Puppy back to 3.xx ;
works fine with Lupu.
