On a computer running Debian 7 (Squeeze) which I have acting as a router and firewall, running "ip route" gives default dev ppp0 scope link 62.3.84.19 dev ppp0 proto kernel scope link src 82.69.122.217 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.2 The last line is for my internal network, the first 'default' line tells (I believe) the system where to send network packets that don't match any network IP address it knows about. If your non-working computer doesn't have this default, a Google search lead me to the following command to add it. ip route add default dev ppp0 though I assume that something in the Debian system should already take care of things like that. NY, I've just read you original email and notice you are running Debian sid. That's Software In Development and is the latest code currently been worked on by Debian developers and is unstable and where bugs are found and worked on. So, it's not something that the average use should really use, especially as in another email you say "Please help a non-techie". I run release version of Debian, because I want a system with a high chance of working and don't have the time to debug issues that always crop up when running the very latest, not fully tested, software. -- Tixy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
