    Prolink PHS100 + acer aspire one D250 UNR

    Hey all,

    I have got the modem all configured and working. Today though when I plugged in a eth0 line and the modem seem to have lost the dns. I am able to ping 202.162.22.222 fine but I cannot ping google.com
    Anything with just ips can be reached but anything with just name cannot be reached. Is there any thing I can check?

    OS Jaunty netbook remix
    modem prolink phs100

    I dial using wvdial.

    Thanks guys

    This is bizarre. It is working now. I suspect that the ISP's dns was not working.
    This is my route ouput
    Code:
    Kernel IP routing table
    Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
    10.64.64.64     *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
    default         *               0.0.0.0         U     0      0        0 ppp0
    and this is my ifconfig
    Code:

    The question I guess is, Is there anyway to get wvdial to use static dns instead of the ones that is assigned by the ISP. I know that there are solutions floating around but it seems to be with previous version of ubuntu.

    Appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks

    Can anyone help me please? I think the problem is with the DNS. I need to know how to configure the dns after wvdial has connected.

    Thanks
