why when I set a machine a static ipv4 route using yast do I loose network outside my local net, outside my router. I still have connection locally, machines connect to my router. I know I am missing a step. Do I need to change something in the router configuration?
I have no problem if I let dhcp set the local addr
My guess is you're somehow losing the default route.
changing from dhcp assignment to static does not make a change to /etc/resolve.conf. how to I *regain* the "default route"?
You said you "set a machine a static ipv4 route using yast", that's not the same as switching to static addressing.
If you're switching to statis addressing, you need to add the default route yourself. (like any other route).
bear with me, please. I am very dense in networking.
No problem, we'll get it sorted out.
I added my router address, 192.168.1.254 to the "Routing" tab as default ipv4 and I can now access the internet, outside the router. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
one more question, how do I determine the ipv6 address for the router?
