I use SuSE 9.0 and try to setup an ADSL connection with a fix IP address over PPPoE. Interestingly it worked, but I did something and it stopped working!
Was this an address assigned by your ISP? If not you -will- have problems.
My data: PPPoE: login name, password
adsl-start shows me connected! and gives me an pppoe IP of 61.x.x.a and an opposite IP address of 61.y.y.b
What is "an opposite IP address"?
I cannot ping the opposite I address (maybe blocked by the provider)
I setup my fix ip address in the network card info of YAST eth0: 222.c.c.37
the default gateway gives me already doubts: I tried 222.c.c.254 and I tried 61.x.x.b
Again, where did you get these addresses from? These are public addresses and if you are trying to use them on your private lan you could have problems.
I cannot ping anything outside! I see the ADSL modem is flashing (LAN and WAN) though.
netstat -rn looks ok for me as well as ifconfig.
But them you seem to have very little experience with networks. Try posting the results to this list and have others take a look. There may be a major problem you can't see.
Any ideas?
