| Post subject: | New Atomic Ant System Can't Connect to Network or Internet |
I have built the exact Atomic Ant that Cecil built found here http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=19476 but I am having two problems: 1. I can’t connect to the network or internet. I I have installed the R6 edition and configured it with a static ip address 192.168.0.88, gateway 192.168.0.1, dns 4.2.2.2. I can ping the gateway and dns server from all my other computers on my network so I know they are working correctly. I am not able to ping the mythtv Atomic Ant box (192.168.0.88). Here is what I know so far: hwdetect --show-net gives the following result: ppp_generic s1hc /etc/resolv.conf shows the correct DNS settings I have reviewed the /etc/rc.conf fine and changed it according to this site: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Con ... _Static_IP The static Ip address appears to be okay. Perhaps I do not have the correct driver installed. If that is the case how do I do it or even check what driver is installed already? Problem 2 - Tuner Card http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hvr850.html, When I enter setup I do not see an option for this, how do I configure it? Thanks in advance for any and all help |

Did you try using the Service Menu to set the address? That should do all the work for you. My system I put network settings in; /etc/net/ifaces/eth0/ipv4address 192.168.254.8/24 /etc/net/ifaces/eth0/ipv4route default via 192.168.254.1 /etc/net/ifaces/eth0/options TYPE=eth DISABLED=no BOOTPROTO=static ONBOOT=yes CONFIG_WIRELESS=no |

| Post subject: | Bad network CABLE |
okay back to the basics, I have been using the same network cable on my other myth setup for at least 3 years and never had a problem. I was using that same cable to setup my new Atom system. After not being able to connect to the internet I replaced the network cable and now I am connecting. It's always the simple things that get you! |

Hate it when that happens. I went through a whole process of replacing a HP slimline power supply when it ended up being a power cable somehow going bad spontaneously. Glad you figured it out. |
