Hi, Try doing traceroute to the Ip you are trying to ping, maybe your routing table is misconfigured. One other thing, Many hosts block ICMP , so you wont be able to ping them even though you have connection to the outside world, try pinging some dns server those usually work, or even better open a telnet/netcat connection to port 80 of some knows web host.

Im not getting this error message again. BUT, Ater Im running the ./cablestart script Im getting the right message: ""Determining IP Information for eth0.... done." When I try to ping the outside world Im getting nothing.. The netstat table looks as it should look (As I saw in Cables-DHCP-pptp-HOWTO). The ifconfig shows the right things: eth0, ppp0, lo and the right IP addresses. Im not getting error. I just can ping the outside world... what should it be? MTUs: eth0: 1500 lo: 16436 ppp0: 1460 . any idea?
