Unable to connect to router
Hi,
I'm having a problem setting up my network.
I have a router (Philips SNA6600/1
, connected with a fixed line to my PC (Suse 9.2 - Realtek RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet)
The configuration was done using YAST, configuration using DHCP and the gateway is set to 192.168.1.1
To configure the router I have to surf to http://192.168.1.1 in a browser. The only answer I get is "Connection was refused when attempting to contact 192.168.1.1"
Here you have my ifconfig
linux:# ifconfig
dsl1 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:87.64.80.40 P-t-P:87.64.80.1 Mask:255.255.255.255

I also checked the wiring, no effect.
Anybody, any suggestions ?

Make sure that your router listens on port 80. If not then you have to do:
http://192.168.1.1:<port>/ and then configure it.---------------------------------

It seems you have configured your PC to use PPPoE and have a direct connection to the internet over the dsl1 connection. If you notice your eth0 connection is on the LAN, but you are most likely trying to access your router from the WAN (the internet through your dsl1 connection) rather than from the LAN (192.168.1.x). To test this try -
You can then try connecting to your router. To be honest you only need one connection, either the PPPoE connection or the LAN - I would recommend just using the LAN connection, as then you have the extra protection of having a box between you and the internet.Code:sudo ifconfig dsl1 down

I need the dsl to read the forum, but to test the network card the usb dsl-modem is unplugged. No need to worry about the dsl1. But still no effect.

I tried it, no effect.

Might be you have a misconfigured firewall. Also try 'nmap 192.168.1.1' to see which ports are open on your router.

If I type "nmap 192.168.1.1" in a terminalwindow, I get "command unknown" or did I do something wrong ?

Looks like nmap is not installed on your system. It's a very useful tool for network problems
Please download this small script on your system, execute it and post the output in this forum. It collects a bunch of information about your network which will help me to help you

CollectNWdata
Thx for the script. It seems a lot is tested.
I attached the output to this reply.
I hope this can help me out !
Anyhow thanks a lot for helping me !
- 02-23-2007 #10That's I'd like to have in the future. Currently the script just collects information and does no tests at all.

Try this and post the results you get:
Code:1) ping 192.168.1.1 2) arp 3) telnet 192.168.1.1 80
