Please see [1]. Your ISP must have installed some kind of box on your premise that converts the media from cable/ DSL / leased line / to Ethernet frames to connect to your LAN. You need to read the docs on that device and/or talk to the support guys @ your ISP. Your 118.x.x.x is most likely assigned to that box. > i am struggling on this issue since 5 days. [1] I would strongly advice you to learn the basics of network topology in a visual form. IMO, w/o a visual topology it is difficult to explain how your network is setup and w/o that info it is next to impossible for anyone to help you. You may continue to struggle for many more days if you are unwilling to take this step. -- Arun Khan -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
