Hello, everyone,

I have a wireless router (it also has a modem inside) to get my Airtel
internet connection. Generally, my computer connects to the wireless
network and I browse.

Recently, though, I was forced to get a modem and connect that to one of
the wireless router's ports because the modem part of the router wasn't
working very well.

Now, I can connect to the wireless router from any computer but I can
only access the Internet from Windows computers. Pinging any outside
address from a Linux computer results in a 'Destination Net Unreachable'
error. The very same computer will then connect to the very same
wireless network when in Windows and browse (and ping) just fine.

I can access other computers within the network when I'm on Linux. I
just can't access the Internet. I've done the following so far:

1. Ask dhclient to get a new lease.

2. Deleted the network settings and then entered them again.

3. Rebooted (ha ha)

Funnily enough, when I use the inbuilt modem in the router again it
works just fine.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks for reading,
--
