Re: Cannot Connect To Internet

I see two problems: 1) You do not volunteer information 2) You do not follow instructions. DougieLawson gave you the same information as I did a few posts back. To be able to find your problem you have to go back to a "reference" configuration, meaning a software configuration that has not been mod...

Why is the host name being changed ?
Why are the IP-addresses in the range 169.254.0.1 / .0.2 ?
Yeah, I am really stuck and I honestly don't know what else to do.

After booting with a fresh, new, image what is the host name ? What is the IP-address assigned to eth0 ? I downloaded a fresh image, but I am curr...

Re: Cannot Connect To Internet

I think we have come to a point where to give up. There are a few things that I do not understand, why the hostname, why are 169.254.0.X addresses configured through DHCP, why does the Pi not receive a DHCP reply from the laptop. Please post the output of the following command: uname -a It is now t...

What is the operating system on your laptop ? Did you install any software or change any configuration on your laptop to help with the communication to the Pi ? If the operating system on your laptop is Windows then I will need some information, please open a command prompt and enter the command: "...

Re: Cannot Connect To Internet

What's on the other end of the eth0 cable? Are you trying to use internet connection sharing? If you're trying to use WiFi does your access point use WPA or WPA2 security? NOT WEP (which is insecure and needs special configuration options). Currently my Pi is connected to my laptop at the moment. T...
