  • Hi All,

    My old CS PC server got hit by lightening at the weekend so I put together a new one using a spare PC. Not a big job as I have copies of my Oscam files etc and things seemed to go OK. My Problem is that I can browse to oscam from another PC on my network and see that its running ok but it would not connect to my friends server. After some checking I discovered that in terminal I can ping any other devises on my network but I cannot ping the outside world eg, ping 8.8.8.8 or http://www.ebay.com. etc. It might be worth mentioning that I had to replace my router also but this seems ok as it gives me internet access. I also have firewalls etc disabled. Here are my network interfaces settings. As you can see I tried a static IP setup which always worked for me. I have left some settings # out at the moment should I need to re-instate later.


    #The loopback network interface

    auto lo

    iface lo inet loopback


    # The primary network interface

    auto p1p1

    iface p1p1 inet dhcp


    #address 192.168.*.*

    #gateway 192.168.*.*

    #dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8

    #netmask 255.255.255.0

    #network 192.168.*.0

    #broadcast 192.168.* 255


    The only difference that I can see from the above compared with my old server is the P1p1 which I understand reefers to the network chip used in this PC ??????.

    Any help or suggestions appreciated.
