Post subject: | Verification my brain is working |
I just need someone to tell me if I'm right or wrong with this. I have a laptop connected through wi-fi with an open ethernet port. I have one of those raspberry pi for some shits and giggles really, but it doesn't have wi-fi connect and is to far away from the modem to run an ethernet cable. My plan is to ad-hoc the raspberry pi to my laptop(much closer) with a crossover cable so my raspberry can access the network/internet. Simple question, will this work? Thanks guys! |

Yes, just enable internet sharing on your wired NIC on your laptop. |

Well, its connected-ish. I can ping anything within my network and any web-address/ip. But, when it comes to using the web-browser it says no connection. I thought it was just the browser. I then proceeded to try to use an apt-get command and it also could not connect. Any suggestions? |

Verify if DNS is working (either by pinging an URL or using nslookup)

This may help to make sure you set everything up correctly. I stumbled across this when looking up how to make remote controlled Christmas Lights. |

Not sure how that video would help at this situation I unplugged everything and started over. Shared my wi-fi connection, which auto-configured my ethernet adapter to a private address scheme(192.168.137.1). So, i plugged in my raspberry pi, booted up. Got an auto-configured IP of 192.168.137.6 I'm still stuck with the same problem: I can ping virtually anywhere(example: 192.168.137.1(ethernet network), 192.168.1.1(my modem on wireless network), and various websites and IPs on the internet) but cannot connect through apt-get commands(even "sudo apt-get update") and through any of the 3 pre-installed web-browsers it comes with. On the apt-get commands I get errors saying they can not connect to "some web-address.com" so I was thinking maybe name resolution for the site, but sadly, when I ping the address alone, it resolves the address and pings successfully. I'm stuck again Edit: I'm also thinking about just installing a fresh version of wheezy or whatever it's called. |

Not sure either, went back and read the message, and realized that you were talking about the web browsers on the pi itself... |

Can you try a telnet to specialattack.net on port 80 ? |

Post subject: | Re: Verification my brain is working |
problem Telnet is not loaded on the device by default. You have to apt-get to use it.. and well.. yeah |

Well, pinging to outside sources and resolving hostnames work, so you clearly have something working there. Perhaps a firewall issue at your laptop? |

Hmm might be, my firewall is very protective at times. I'll take a look at it then respond back. Should have thought of that first Edit: That was it, gotta figure out how to exclude an entire network now, but, atleast I know what it is. Thanks Saint! |
