I have to network interfaces, eth1 and wlan0. eth1 is connected to the internet, wlan0 I need to serve as a hotspot sharing eth1's internet connection to anyone connected to wlan0. I am running ubuntu server 12.04 lts.... any help will be greatly appreciated. thank you?

Hi,

I tried to setup a Ubuntu Wired Router according to the manual but found a problem.

At the end of the doc page it says:

Code: auto br0 iface br0 inet static     address 192.168.0.1     network 192.168.0.0     netmask 255.255.255.0     broadcast 192.168.0.255

You could try the following, which solved a possibly similar problem with a JME card:ip link set dev wlan0 down ip link set dev wlan0 promisc on macchanger -a wlan0 ip link set dev wlan0 upThen reconnect with wpa_supplicant or whatever you use.

Sorry for my bad English first.

I've few sub interfaces like eth1:1 eth1:2 .... eth1:10 and so on.

same messages in erros.log here. Samsung NP350.$ dmesg -T | egrep wlan0[Вт. мая 1 22:28:34 2012] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [Вт. мая 1 22:28:36 2012] wlan0: authenticate with 84:c9:b2:51:6e:9b (try 1) [Вт. мая 1 22:28:36 2012] wlan0: authenticated [Вт. мая 1 22:28:36 2012] wlan0: associate with 84:c9:b2:51:6e:9b (try 1) [Вт.

You can check what mode is enabled before: # ethtool eth1 to change: # nano /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 ETHTOOL_OPTS="speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off" Restart Interface: # ifdown eth1 && ifup eth1 Confirm: # tail -30 /var/log/messages # ethtool eth1

I have 3 network cards installed in my ubuntu 10.04 server and I want to configure Internet sharing and file sharing on eth1 for wired users and wlan0 for wireless users.

Static ip: eth0: 192.168.1.1 eth1: 10.0.0.15 wlan0: 10.0.0.20

/etc/network/interfaces

# The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 19

hi,

we have eth1; in the beginning it was proposed to create from eth1, eth1.2500 and eth1.240. It did not worked cause vlan 1.2500 was not tagged in the switch.

so they decided to leave eth1 like a physical interface with eth1.2500 config (removel vlan tag) and create eth1.240

but it did not work because when eth1.240 is up , the eth1 lose it´s gateway using eth1.240 gateway.

Alright... this is odd.
