What's your default route look like?
netstat -rn
It sounds like you don't have a default route set.
I've been using Linux for a few years but this is beyond anything I've
learned. The network I'm trying to conect to is at my work. I have very
incompleat knowlage of the network. I did try intering a route in the
route tab of wireless device configuration. I set destination network
and gateway to the gateway address I found on the windows machine and
the net mask to 255.255.255.0 . I could run a traceroute on windows but
what would I use for to use for destination network? Any other sujestions?
