hi kristin
u can try this:>
first delete any default entry in ur routing table by
route del default.
if it gives error message like "no such process" itis ok dont worry.
actually the network unreacable message is because the net id of ur
gateway differs from the net id of eth0
suppose ur gateway IP is 194.200.10.XXX then eth0 should be
something like 194.200.10.YYY.
U cant access the network 194.200.10 from eth0. Check the IP of your
gateway(router or proxy?).
The required routing entry will be
route add default gw 194.200.10.XXX eth0. Dont specify any netmask.
If the net id of eth0 is different then try other interfaces if u
have. Otherwise change the IP of eth0 using ifconfig.
route -n will show:>
destination gateway genmask Flags metric Iface
0.0.0.0 194.200.10.XXX 0.0.0.0 UG 0 eth0
