Since two days I am not able to connect to the internet with my second computer. This happened quit sudden as I found out when I wanted to make a zypper dup. Kmail and Chromium do not connect to the net.
The strange thing is that the Skype which I run on that machine still works perfectly. I have checked my internet setup but did not find anything that was changed. The firewall was not changed and is still open for my connections.
Anybody with an idea where to start looking?
The things to check are the routing table with 'route -n', the nameserver setup with 'cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep -v \#', and pings to the various levels.
Dear Lary, Thanks for the help. # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 # cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep -v \# nameserver 8.8.8.8
The routing table should look something like:
Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 1024 0 0 wlp4s0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlp4s0
For this example, try to ping the gatewiwy entry in the row with the "UG" flags using 'ping -c5 192.168.1.1'. Substitute the address listed in your routing table. If that works, then try 'ping -c5 216.83.154.106'. If that works as well, then try 'ping -c5 www.samba.org'. Let us know the output of the commands in my first lines, and the ping results.

Pinging was apart from the samba.org successful, meaning it found 192.168.1.1 Where would I insert the google addresses into my router or into the net setup in order to sneek past the local government -- Linux User 183145 using KDE4 and LXDE on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 20150410 (x86_64) Kernel: 3.19.3-1-desktop KDE Development Platform: 4.14.6 13:00pm up 3:55, 4 users, load average: 0.36, 0.35, 0.67 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
