No internet connection

[Leon Phelps]

Brian,


Alexander has provided a great list of things to check.
When you do "route -n" look for the line that says Destination 0.0.0.0 and
the gateway it lists should be what you'll need. The default Fedora
iptables configuration shouldn't be denying anything out. So if the
iptables command Alexander provided checks out ok, make sure you can ping
your gateway and then attempt to ping/traceroute to hostnames, and then ip
addresses. Perhaps there is a dns problem, which may be covered in
/etc/resolve.conf check.
