Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Basic setup issues.

[John B. <sag...@gm...>]

I'm a newbie, but I'll put in my 2 cents.

I needed to set the IP address from setup eth1 Configuration menut
to 192.168.1.1 (I believe the default is 192.168.1.255 or .254).
For me, XP seemed to need this value; I think linux is more robust.
The WRT54G may be sensitive.

Can you connect one of your Vista or XP machines directly
to the DL box?  It's prolly easier to troubleshoot with
Vista or XP, than thru a router.

Good luck.
