First, I'm newish to Linux command line, so bear with me. Each time I made a change, I disconnected and reconnected the card via vwdial, usually making changes when the card was on. First, based on your info, I tried this:
Code:
route add default 209.112.163.4
But it isn't a valid command on the XO, as 'route' is in /sbin, so I tried and got:
Code:
/sbin/route add default 209.112.163.4
SIOCADDRT: No such device
I edited the resolv.conf file by adding:
Code:
nameserver 209.193.4.7
search acsalaska.net
Doing this makes it possible to ping to my ISP, but not to Google. I can also browse to my ISP's homepage, but not outside the network.
Code:
/sbin/route/ -e
Kernal IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
odsn1-ak-dest-l * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
default * 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0
Since this got us closer, I tried changing the resolv.conf to:
Code:
nameserver 209.193.4.7
nameserver 209.193.4.8
nameserver 209.112.160.2
That didn't go as well, so I reduced back to the two DNS servers that the card was seeing when it hooked up.
Code:
nano /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 209.193.4.7
nameserver 209.112.160.2
search acsalaska.net
So far, it's browsing.
