further info - i logged in again as SU and the route -n provided a response. it gets me from local host address to 192.168.123.0 showing no gateway address. how to amend to go from 192.168.123.0 to 10.2.2.1?

Dominique, Ken,

The /etc/resolv.conf table shows the correct dns servers that the ISP gave me. the AP uses a 10.2.2.1 address as the gateway to the ISP where the DNS servers reside. I tried the route -n command as suggested but bash says no such file or directory, which leads me to believe there is something not installed on my suse box that should be. Also, when I type in an address directly, (i.e., http://212.203.69.7) i get a connection refused error. Any suggestions on what to do from this point?

Hi list,

I just moved from Linspire to Suse 10 and like the transition very much. Everything works pretty well from the install but I cannot seem to get the WLAN to work. I can hit the Access point from any other machine and get to the Internet fine, but with Suse, I can hit the config screen on the Access Point and configure, etc. but still cannot get out to the Internet. The card is configured correctly using 64-bit WEP and it is recognized by the kwifimanager program with an excellent signal and a valid IP address assigned with DHCP from the AP. I must be overlooking something but am baffled at this point. Can someone shed some light on why I cannot get out to the internet? Many thanks in advance.

Hi John,

Jave you checked if DNS name resolution works correct?
Are there valid DNS servers in your /etc/resolv.conf?
You receive them by DHCP?
Try to connect to something like http://212.203.69.7 (so no dns is required)

I guess on such a failure as you say you can access the web interface of your AP (probably using it's IP) so it might be such a cause... in other cases I would try to check the routing table using 'route print'

Greetings
Dominique
