No internet
« Thread Started on Feb 15, 2011, 1:42am »
Here I am trying Saline 1.1 on another computer.
Upon running live USB, there is no internet.

So I use another Linux OS to post my hardware information.

Are you trying to use Ethernet or WIFI? Linux mint uses Gnome Network Manager while Saline Os uses WICD.

Hmn, WICD should pick up the Ethernet line right away, mine did. I changed to Network Manager because I had problems with WIFI, but, I had to have a connection to install it. I use a router too, a Cisco B & G I think. Open the Internet connection in your taskbar and see if it is connected.

Try Applications > Network > Wicd Network Manager. And see if that if that can solve the problem. Also have you tried right clicking on the icon in the top panel to see if that will automatically start a connection. It works with my Broadcom just fine.

If you use the lspci command in a terminal like I did it will tell us everything we need to know about your computer when dealing with problems like this. But what you did worked good to. Thanks.

This has worked for me in the past with wired connections.

Poweroff your computer.

Disconnect the ethernet cable from your nic.

Wait a minute, reconnect the cable and turn on your computer.

It may not be the same for you, but sometimes my nic gets hung in a state of no data transfer. Especially after installing new networking software.

Are the leds blinking on your nic?

If your nic leds don't blink, you're pc is not talking to your router/modem.

192.168.2.1 or something close to this should open a settings page in your browser.

If it doesn't, try checking the physical connections.

connection failed, unable to get IP address

Did you enable DHCP with the Wicd Network Manager? Or do you need a static IP address.

Code:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:22:40:2c:42
inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

gksu ifconfig should return info that looks like the above, see the second line.

EDIT: Have you tested your cable they do go bad from time to time.

If your router or modem is running a DHCP server you should have established a connection automatically when you first booted. I can't see anything you posted that shows a bad setup. You could try running this to see if WICD daemon shoots up any error when starting:

gksu /etc/init.d/wicd start

Dumb question, did you run an md5sum on that live disk you are using?

hi chevy, I am using the same computer, another Linux OS to post this.
no issue on cable, no issue on DHCP / router.

the ifconfig using another Linux OS has the following lines:


Quote:
inet addr:192.168.1.11 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::225:64ff:feef:6455/64 Scope:Link

hi heardedragon, yes it is checked.

hi Anthony,
gksu /etc/init.d/wicd start
the terminal shows
Code:
Starting Networking Connection Manager : wicd

then the $ prompt and nothing else.

As I can use the same computer with other OS , thus I think we can rule out any hardware issue.

I read from other posts on this broadcom BCM57788 , they usually mentioned to do

Quote:
modprobe -r tg3
modprobe broadcom
modprobe tg3

so, I did that at root, a few times, yet there is no sign of network connection..
I wonder what is wrong....

b44 is the driver for Broadcom.

In a terminal issue 'lsmod | grep b44'.

and see if it's there.
