Question: Destination Host Unreachable 

Forum: PCMCIA Network Adapter Issues
Date: 1999, Nov 15
From: David Walden Walden

I have installed RedHat 6.1 on my Mitac 6020 with no problems except my Wisecom PC400 PCMCIA network card doesn't seem to be talking to the network. I am able to ping the card itself and when netstat -r is run the default gateway is shown, but I am still unable to ping anything on the network. I keep getting a response "Destination Host UnReachable". Does anyone have any suggestions?

Network unreachable == routing problem Re: Question: Destination Host Unreachable (David Walden) Date: 1999, Nov 15 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

Your "netstat -r" may show a route to your gateway, but there must still be a problem with your routing info. "Network unreachable" always means a routing problem. Perhaps your gateway address isn't on the same subnet as your own IP address. If you can't sort it out, post the actual "netstat -rn" output. -- Dave
