<snip> <snip> Nice one thanks. I quite like the ntp section...

Well, don't know it's bad form to reply to ones post, but here goes. It appears that it was the ethernet port on my Asus EEE 904HD. Even though I could work quite happily with later versions of OpenWRT, the Jasager version just didn't. I picked up a Trendnet TU2-ET100 (USB to Ethernet adaptor) and plugged it into a USB port on the Asus. Worked great, straight off. I could also do everything I needed to with the Jasager firmware on the fon. So for me, this is case closed.

Hi MTCONE How did you get this sorted? I'm having the same problem as yourself. Well, mostly. On my HP (Dual boot with XP and BT4) I've got no issues with installing Jasager and doing everything I need to. On my Asus EEE, I have the same problems as yourself after burning the Jasager firmware. However with the OpenWRT packages (8.09.2), it works fine I've got a feeling it's a problem with the Asus NIC which is running with an Atheros chipset, I believe.

Interesting to see this post. I've been having the same issues and it's driving me mad. Some things I've noted: I'm using BT4 on an Asus EEE If I burn the standard Jasager firmware with Windows, then at the end of the burn, I can ping/telnet/etc from the Windows into my fon. If I burn the standard Jasager firmware through BT4, I can't even ping the fon after the burn. I'm sure it's an issue with BT4 but I can't figure out for the life of me what it is. Googling doesn't help. <_< One thing I did find though, is that when I set up a ping through BT4, when I power on the fon, I see "Destination Host Unreachable" for a while, then I get some replies, then it goes back to "Destination Host Unreachable". In the time that I get replies, I can telnet to the fon on port 9000 and hit ctrl-C, but I can't get any further than this. It's a bit frustrating, because it works on my HP 2510p (using either BT4 or XP (dual boot machine)), but I can't do it on the Asus. The Asus ethernet port has an Atheros chipset, I believe. I'll still keep on playing with this, to see if I get any more joy. I'll post here if I get some news.

Dunno if it's bad form to reply to your own posts, but I played around with the settings as described above, and aside from a bit of VMWare network tweaking, it worked fine. Thanks very much for your help. N

Y'know, I try to be clear in my posts so I can get my message across and I still screw it up. I meant to say that I'd tested my setup using Windows ICS, just to see if I could get it all working. Now my aim is to do the same in the VMWare session. I know. Having the VMWare session just threw me completely. Lovely stuff, thanks very much for your input on this. I'll report back later on. Neil

Hi there, I've spent the best part of the day searching through the site and googling for help, before deciding to bother you all with this. Excuse the newbie questions. I'm running backtrack in a vmware and want to set up the fonera to run through this. I got it set up through windows with ICS fine, but am having issues with the backtrack set up. Primarily because of the networking side of things through the VMWare. The route I'm expecting is Fonera -> VMWare Backtrack -> Windows box -> Internet (I think this is right) Here are some bits of network info. 1. Home network 192.168.0.0/24 2. Backtrack network through VMWware 192.168.124.0/24 3. Fonera IP address : 192.168.1.1 4. Internet gateway : 192.168.0.100 5. VMWare eth0 : 192.168.124.128 6. VMWare adapter (Windows host side) : 192.168.124.10 7.
