unable to ping external ip address after installing openWrt

Hi Guys

I have been working on this issue without success since sunday.

I am able to ping internally but not an external address, my installation fails at ping www.google.com
the error is:

PING www.google.com (74.125.236.209): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Network is unreachable
root@OpenWrt:/#

Initially I was able to get Piratebox to work, then I installed Librarybox. At that point my router was not detected and I followed the instructions here:
[jasongriffey.net]

From that point on, I am unable to ping google, or get the opkg update.

I have looked at many options, double checked my /etc/config files and am still not able to ping outside.

Can someone please help me fix it?

Thanks much in advance.

Wow....I am really excited to install this. Your full tutorial is really what I need.

mp,

usually IP settings cause the most trouble. Can you please post the contents of your /etc/config/network and the address of your home (internet access) router?

i had the same problem, my network configurations is that:

config interface 'loopback'
option ifname 'lo'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config interface 'lan'
option ifname 'eth0'
option type 'bridge'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '192.168.1.1'
option netmask '255.255.255.0'
option gateway '192.168.1.2'
list dns '192.168.1.2'
list dns '8.8.8.8'

the ip of my home router is: 192.168.1.2
