Hello all,
My networking setup used to work fine. I had a Ubuntu box plugged into an Airport Extreme with a physical cord. The Ubuntu box had a static internal IP as 192.168.1.200. All other clients that connected with a wired or wireless connection to the Airport Extreme used a DHCP lease.
The Airport Express crapped out and I had to get a new one. Now, I have an interesting problem. All is working fine except:
The Ubuntu box will not open outgoing connections.
I can SSH to it from another computer via "ssh 192.168.1.200". No problem there. But I cannot open a web page, or ping google.com from Terminal.
When I switch the networking on the Ubuntu box to use DHCP, everything works fine. But I don't want to have it set up this way.
The problem must be with a setting on the Airport Extreme, I am thinking. I have it set so that the DHCP leases run from 192.168.1.02 through 192.168.1.199, so it's not interfering that way.
Any ideas? Thanks for your help.
