Are you trying to connect a Beaglebone to Internet using an USB connection to your PC? It's going to be a struggle, especially if you don't want to dive into networking details. I suggest buying a cheap USB-Ethernet adapter and connecting your Beaglebone to local LAN using that. It usually works just like that. Something like this: http://www.logilink.eu/Produkte_LogiLink/Aktive_Netzwerkkomponenten/Fast_Ethernet/USB_2_0_to_Fast_Ethernet_RJ45_Adapter_UA0144B.htm -- Kind regards, Tarmo Kuuse -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
