Yes, I can ping the router. How do I know if the router is the default
gateway?
You can use the 'route -n' command for that. It should look something like this:
$ route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.268.3.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0 192.168.3.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
The first line says that all traffic to the local network goes through eth0. The
sencond line means that any other address is reached by using gateway
192.168.3.254.
If the latter is not configured, your machine essentially has no connection to
the internet, which is probably the case based on your original posting.
