Well, I can't be sure without seeing your entire routing table, but I would bet you need to do something more like this: route add -net 10.0.0.0/24 -iface ipw0 route add default 10.0.0.1 (or maybe route add default gw 10.0.0.1) If that doesn't work try giving us the output from your routing table (netstat -rn). -Matt On Sun, Jun 8, 2008 at 10:27 AM, Svein Halvor Halvorsen <svein.h@lvor.halvorsen.cc> wrote: > Hi! > > I usually use the wired network at home, in which everything gets > configured automatically as soon as I attach the cable to my network > card. > > However, when using the wireless network, I need to run > > # route add default -iface ipw0 > > This will give me a route to the gateway (10.0.0.1), and I can ping > the gateway, as well as other machines on our local network.
