1. are the lights on or flashing with a cable plugged in and pinging
something valid?
No. They are stable
That indicates a problem - if a packet is going out/in, the lights
shouls flash
Excuse me; I looked only half a second!!! Yes they are flashing.
Since this night I found something
If the PC has wireless it would be a quick test to run to prove if the eth0
NIC on the mobo is borked.
Yesterday night, under Win XP (!), I could connect
to internet with wifi.
But, on my desktop I don't have yet internet connection.
Is the network card even so out???
I don't know why, but my desktop is now connected to internet!
The only thing I did was a reboot!
Thanks a lot to you all who tried to help me.
It was a hard way to obtain the solution.
The problem was
Or someone's standing on the cable :-)
Yes, a bad spirit!!!
I resume.
1-The problem occured after I tried to share my Epson printer
between my three PCs: Gentoo+XP (twice) and W7
2-The NIC is included in the motherboard (Asus P5K-E)
3-The cable from the dektop, where the problem exists,
works
This really sounds like broken hardware and if the
cable is fine, the NIC is suspect.
I'm afraid you're right!
But, as I just wrote, the NIC is included in the motherboard...
PERHAPS a solution: try a restore from the
external HD where I have saved a week ago with
fsarchiver on SystemRescueCD.
Can you get hold of a PCI* NIC to try, it will appear as eth1.
Excuse me, I don't understand what you mean get hold of a PCI* NIC :-(
A lspci gives:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8056 PCI-E
Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 12)
Based on all the information provided already, there is a very good chance
that the network card on your mainboard is no longer working correctly.
I'm afraid you're right, because neither Gentoo nor XP work and they're
on two different HD.
I am, to be honest, hoping that it is caused by
Apologies if I missed someone already asking these:
No problem! Thanks to try to help me.
1. are the lights on or flashing with a cable plugged in and pinging

No. They are stable
2. can you ping yourself (both 127.0.0.1 and the nic IP) - cable plugged
in
They work both
Reset the switch too?
Excuse me Thanasis but I don't understand what you mean ;-(
Wait 5 minutes and then restart the whole thing.
I did it, but without success :-(

If you have another device with Internet connection you can download
the missing files and place it into your /usr/portage/distfiles

Once you are inside the SystemRescueCD (has finished booting) try to
start the network. It should get an IP from the router's dhcp server.
If it doesn't, then try to assign manually one to eth0, and test.
OK. I make an ifconfig and the adress is: 169.264.240.204
and of course Firefox has no
Can you please try to ping your router:
ping -c 3 192.168.1.1
It fails: Destination Host Unreachable
if this fails try to ping other PCs in your LAN.
I can't get other PCs
If that fails too can you use arping instead:
arping -c 3 -I eth0 192.168.1.1
or the same with the IP
Assign one manually.
ifconfig eth0 down 0
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.111 up
ifconfig
route -n
ping 192.168.1.1
arp -a
It works as well with SystemRescueCD as on a terminal
But ping to another PC gives Destination Host Unreachable
So try the following and post output:
# ping -c 3 192.168.1.1 ; arp -a
ping -c 3 192.168.1.1 ; arp -a

Can you ping your machine from any other PC on your LAN?
No: Destination Host Unreachable
(from 192.168.1.22 to 192.168.1.20)
If not please change the ethernet cable.
I did it, it was even a new one!
This seems s much like a hardware failure
I can't think of anything else.

Hi,
Yesterday I tried to make a connection between my three PC
to manage my Epson printer: two with Win XP and Gentoo
and one with Win7.
I didn't succeed, but that's not important!
After reboot of the three machines
I went back to Win7: no problem
and to my laptop with Xp and Gentoo: OK.

Hi Todd,
Thank you for your quick answer.
It looks like your DHCP server isn't serving addresses.
Well, it serves adresses for W7, and on the laptop for XP and Gentoo.
The box is configured with fixed adresses.

Can you check the network cable and connections to ensure that is actually
correct?
The cable and connections are well.

It depends on your router. Usually routers have at least a GUI control panel
access and one of the pages shows recent attempts to connect and authenticate.
My router hasn't this!
Are your running some sort of an access control list on the router and have
not included your MAC address?
Your DHCP server serves addresses for other hardware OK?
Yes. A PC with W7, my laptop with XP and Gentoo
Both work fine.
The problem is on my desktop with two HD: XP and Gentoo
Both OS can't connect to Internet.
When you say fixed addresses you mean the DHCP server gives out a
fixed IP
Try setting an address manually:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.20 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 192.168.1.1 (assuming that this is your router)
It doesn't work: error locating host target (for route)
