To make broadband connection

[satimis]

Hi folks,

Ubuntu-6.06.1-LAMP-server
Broadband connection via ADSL-modem/router
Dynamic IP

There is no X running on the server. Please advise how to find router IP address and check ITS configuration.

TIA

try "ifconfig" which will tell you about the network interfaces, mine looks like this :-

linux-g55o:~ # ifconfig
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:229 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:229 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:18756 (18.3 Kb)  TX bytes:18756 (18.3 Kb)

ra0       Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:50:DD:A0:4B
          inet addr:123.123.123.123  Bcast:123.123.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::211:50ff:fedd:a04b/64 Scope:Link

          Interrupt:5

'netstat -r' is also useful, in that it gives you the routing table.

have fun
