Please guide me in how to set it up.If the network is set up > correctly, you should be able to ping the router itself at 192.168.1.1, and /sbin/ifconfig should show you something like 192.168.1.2 for the address for the Ethernet port (I assume you are using that rather than the USB interface). If this works, but no external sites open, most likely you have not set up the DNS nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf. If you are in Delhi, you should add the following two lines to /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 203.94.243.70 nameserver 203.94.227.70 and comment out any others that are already in there. For other areas, you might need to get the IP addresses for the local nameservers. Be aware also that your system might be set up to automatically overwrite /etc/resolv.conf each time that the network is set up (there are various ways to stop that). Regards, Gora
