Getting real close now.
I changed the IP addresses so that
- On the Linux PC, the Linksys PCMCIA card Model No. PCM100H1 has an IP address
of 172.16.0.1 ( instead of 10.20.0.1 )
- the Win 98 PC that I’m trying to ping has a Diamond Mulmedia Eth / HPNA card,
I set the IP address there to 172.16.0.3
The Ethernet connection works, both PCs can ping each other.
The HPNA connection does not work. I unplug the Eth cable from both PCs and plug in the
HPNA phone line (straight thru phone line). When I try the pings with HPNA I get the
destination host unreachable message.
Note: The HPNA connection on the Win 98 machine does work with another Win 98 machine.
Does the Linksys PCM100H1 card need to be, or can it be, configured to auto-select the interface ?
Or can it be set to be HPNA only ?
From Linux ?
From reading the Linksys documentation, I had thought and hoped that the
interface would auto-select.
