I'm connected directly to the DSL modem/router via eth0 right now. |
| 30 |
This is not normal and I'm only connected like this so I can get |
| 31 |
online to write this message. I'm usually trying to connect via ath0 |
| 32 |
to the Gentoo router which is then connected to the modem/router. |
| 33 |
Here is my current ifconfig: |

and /etc/conf.d./net : |

| 77 |
essid_ath0=( "network2" ) |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
although I currently have a couple eth0 lines so I can connect to the |
| 80 |
modem/router. They aren't usually there. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
I must admit I don't know what the broadcast and netmask are and they |
| 83 |
are set the same for the Gentoo router and the laptop that connects to |
| 84 |
it. |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
Please let me know if you have any idea what the problem might be, or |
| 87 |
where I should look for the problem. |
