Amiga surfing the WEB

[Daniele]

I tryied the configuration suggest by AmigaKit but doesn't work.

Then I tried to connect to the router a second PC using this configuration and it works.My second pc connects to internet with these parameters

PC N.1:

IP Address            192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask         255.255.255.0
Gateway               192.168.1.1

DNS Primary         151.99.125.1    My ISP Alice
DNS Secondary       151.99.0.100    Telecom Italia    



PC N.2:

IP Address            192.168.1.3
Subnet Mask         255.255.255.0
Gateway               192.168.1.1

DNS Primary         151.99.125.1  
DNS Secondary       151.99.0.100        

But when I put this configuration, the last one,
instead to connect my second pc to the router I connect the A1200T and put inside EasyNet these parameters I cannot surf the web and if I ping 192.168.1.3 no one packed is received.
I whant know also if Debig SANA should be Enabled or Disabled ,I tried with Enabled.

Any help to help me to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance

OK a few points I noticed from the Network Configuration Help file you emailed:

- the speed setting for the FastEthernet.device is not set - you must save - goto the Interfaces section of EasyNet

- Another bsdsocket.library is running - do you have Genesis or another TCP/IP stack partially installed?

- Run REXXMAST from the WBStartUp as previously advised.

[Daniele]

How I can eliminate  bsdsocket.library?

I had this before installing Genesis anyway.

I simply deleted Genesis.

I don't know Genesis, but it sounds to me like you didn't delete all of it.  Unfortunately, since I don't know it, I can't help you get rid of it.

@Daniele
But now, are you onlie with Amiga?

if not..
on PC it's enough tell to pc to share internet connection and file in advance properties of "Lan connect" icon in net connections control pannel.

hmmm, one thing to try, is tell all the other machines on your network to use the internet gateway box (be it a router or a PC) as a DNS server - as they won't know about using your ISP as the DNS server. thats the gateway system's job to look after the packet routing between the Lan and Wan.

so for example.
gateway machine (router / PC / whatever)
internet connection
WAN IP supplied by DHCP from ISP
DNS IP suppied by DHCP from ISP
gateway IP supplied by DHCP from ISP
network connection
LAN IP 192.168.1.1 (and dishing out DHCP addesses from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254)
DNS IP 192.168.1.1 (as it is the DNS server from this network)
gateway 192.168.1.1 (as it is the gateway for this network)

2nd machine (PC working with DHCP) gets the addesses from the gateway machine
LAN IP 192.168.1.2
DNS IP 192.168.1.1
gateway 192.168.1.1

3rd machine (amiga wanting a static IP) set it to a high IP address in the IP range, so there is little chance of it being re-allocated by the gateway device
manually set the
LAN IP 192.168.1.100
DNS IP 192.16.1.1
gateway 192.168.1.1


to summerize, set all your LAN machines to have the DNS address set to the gateway machine's IP address.

--edit--
i've never known a router not DHCP its entire range (2-254), unless it was configured not to.
my router is set to DHCP from 2-99, amigas being static on 100 to 199, and static server addresses on 200-254

[Seiya]

if pc become a router software with own ip 192.168.0.1, the lan is very easy to make.

PC (router)
IP: 192.168.0.1

Amiga (client)
IP:  192.168.0.2
netmask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1

Make sure you have an accelerator as well to make it as painless as possible and if you have a tower think about getting a graphics card
