Cannot Connect To The Internet With Fon+

[WinstonSmith]

I've followed all of the directions noted here http://www.hak5.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=15269.

Up the the point of getting the fonera to connect to the internet.

echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE

wlan0 because that is the device that is actually accessing my internet connection.

Im using a old eepc 900a running ubuntu.

Does anyone have any insight on this?

I would love help.

cheers,

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE

Thats the command I use in BT4. I have the Fon/Jasager connected to my laptop ethernet port w/ crossover cable. I also modified the Fon to use my laptop's static IP on the LAN card as the gateway.

Doublecheck these settings:

Edit /etc/config/dhcp

list 'dhcp_option' '3,192.168.169.16' **Sets Gateway to Laptop LAN card

list 'dhcp_option' '6,8.8.8.8' **Sets DNS to GoogleDNS

Edit /karma/www/cgi-bin/functions.rb

under "def create_interface()" add the following:

system("sleep 1")

system("brctl addif br-lan ath0 2>&1 > /dev/null")

Login webif, Network tab, DHCP subtab, Disable Bogus Private Reverse Lookups, Disable filterwin2k, Disable Localise Queries ---Save settings and apply

Login Webif, Network Tab, Networks subtab, Set IP address 192.168.169.169 with netmask 255.255.255.0 ---Save settings and apply

Since I was just testing it out in ubuntu with plans to use it in bt4.

I think I'm going to build an sd card with persistent changes for bt4.

Thank you so much for the help.
