you havent setup ur local lancard ip.set using network-admin gui or edit as sudo /etc/network/interfaces and add
Code:
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
then restart n/w:
Code:
/etc/init.d/networking force-reload
and try ping 192.168.1.1
