Re: 2 NIC cards not talking

Hi, Chadha:

Originally, you said:

 You do not show how you attempt the 'ping',
nor the error message.

Please show exact ping command attempt.

I was hoping for something like:
----------------------------------------------------------
gelmce@web:~$ ping -c 4 192.168.0.1
PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1): 56 octets data
64 octets from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=127 time=1.6 ms
64 octets from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=127 time=1.4 ms
64 octets from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=127 time=1.4 ms
64 octets from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=127 time=1.3 ms
 
--- 192.168.0.1 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 1.3/1.4/1.6 ms

The above (LAN) IP address is my hardware router, a DLink DI-604.

---------------------------------------------------------
gelmce@web:~$ ping -c 4 68.74.221.208
PING 68.74.221.208 (68.74.221.208): 56 octets data
64 octets from 68.74.221.208: icmp_seq=0 ttl=127 time=1.6 ms
64 octets from 68.74.221.208: icmp_seq=1 ttl=127 time=1.4 ms
64 octets from 68.74.221.208: icmp_seq=2 ttl=127 time=1.4 ms
64 octets from 68.74.221.208: icmp_seq=3 ttl=127 time=1.4 ms
 
--- 68.74.221.208 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 1.4/1.4/1.6 ms
------------------------------------------------------------
The above is the IP address that my ISP gives my router.

So, again, exactly how does 'ping' fail?
