Can you ping your default gateway (by its IP address)? If you can, can you then ping something further away that you know ordinarily should be up and reachable?
That should help narrow down the problem a little :P

I have been running Fedora Core 2 for several months now, and have no complaints, except for a weird connection problem.
It seems that whenever I try to connect to the internet or another computer, it comes right back with host unavailable, or connection refused, or no route to host. This happens for about a minute, then I am able to connect fine after that. But if the computer is idle for several minutes, I get the same thing. it doesn't matter if I am using mozilla or just trying a ping from the shell. I've searched archives, and all over the net, to no avail. This isn't a dialup connection, and it is a permanent IP.
Anybody have similar problems? or point me in the right direction. Thanks, Mike
