Under linux the following should work: ifconfig eth0 up ip addr add 192.168.1.200/24 dev eth0 ip route add default via 192.168.1.1 Windows should be straight forward (look in tcp/ip properties on the appropriate Ethernet device). If all of this fails, log in to your ipcop box (try ssh, or directly via the console aka keyboard :) and issue a reboot command. Also, make sure that there is no other device on the LAN with the same IP address. Oh, and finally, check all the cabling. Physical issues can cause sleepless nights if you don't look for them. > Suggestions anyone? > > -- > pub 1024D/9091C422 02/05/2006 Mitchell Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> > Primary key fingerprint: 812B 94BC EA0D 345A CC1C 2ED9 F7F6 5CCF > 9091 C422 > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEaS6AwRXgH3rKGfMRAjaeAJwNv8mMZaENDD4OXDkl1iTfoPvRQACdGslc qpR4QaRbS9lO69ndr8MUaL0= =APJK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
