Hi,
I need internet connection on my beagleboard xm and decided to tether my phone’s internet. However even though I got an IP address, I cannot ping to google.com.

While I was using beaglebone, this issue was related to DNS and I was able to solve the problem by adding nameserver 8.8.8.8 to the /etc/resolv.conf. However this time it did not work. Do you have any suggestions?
Also when I boot the device I get the following error:

Is "can’t create /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.usb0.leases: No such file or directory" error an important thing?

I am pretty sure that it is related to DNS settings. But I could not find a solution. Any assitance will be much appreciated.

if usb0 is wireless adaptor, then iwconfig usb0 you should see something.
but now usb0 is not up. but your usb1 is ok for internet now. do you send
me your routing table? ( command: route -n)

Hi zero,
this is definetly a shot in the dark...
I own a Beaglebone and network-wise it should be identical
to the Beagleboard.
When I do a ifconfig on the Beaglebone I see this:
beaglebone:/root>ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr d4:94:a1:99:9b:82
inet addr:192.168.178.25 Bcast:192.168.178.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

RX bytes:100 (100.0 B) TX bytes:100 (100.0 B)
I am using old school cable to connect to the internet, therefore
there is an old fashioned "eth0".
But: There is no inet6 address...which can be seen at the output
of ifconfig in you email.
Secondly: You should not use Googles DNS. Use the DNS of your Internet
provider or the one he suggests.
Thirdly: Is it possible that the eth0 is tried to bring up BEORE the
usb wireless module gets loaded?
Compile the stuff for wireless eth access directly into your kernel
instead.
HTH!

Hello goldpeer,

which port is your internet connection? usb0 or usb1?
from your routing table, usb1 should be a working connection.
can you ifconfig usb0 up manually? if not, it means network driver
for usb0 is not working.
sorry but I could not clearly understand which port is my internet connection. I am think it is usb0. But to be sure here are some outputs that may help you:

Is not my usb0 aldready up? But I tried ifconfig usb0 down && ifconfig usb0 up anyway and did not solve anything. Also is not my internet connection over usb1? IP address info is written under usb1?

usb0: is normally the usb "otg" connector on Beagle xM
usb1: was formerly the "smsc95xx" Ethernet jack, in later kernels this
became eth0
Regards,
I do not have a logical answer to your question because of my ignorance but I am not using an USB wireless module to connect to internet. I am using an USB cable to tether my internet connection. Therefore I think it should not be a problem?

Is it OK that at the dmesg output I see that:
[ 9648.259857] usb0: no IPv6 routers present
[ 9714.064544] usb1: no IPv6 routers present
no. dmesg shows that usb0 should be ethernet, [ 6890.733886] usb0: register ‘smsc95xx’ at usb-ehci-omap.0-2.1, smsc95xx USB 2.0 Ethernet, b2:e5:48:44:72:4b
usb1 is something else. you’d better change your cable tether to your mobile(?)
into another usb port for a trial?
Cheers,

Dan, now I connected my phone to PC and everything worked well. Also I tried other 3 USB ports on my beagleboard-xm but unfortunately nothing changed.

I was tethering my wifi connection from the cell-phone. Then, I decided to give 3g a try and it worked. Then I enabled wireless and tethered it. Now it is working also. But if I directly try to tether my wireless connection, it does not work. (I should go step by step.)
Is not it strange? Do you have idea what kind of a logic is behind this?
Good to hear about you got it-
OMG! I will go nuts. It worked for two times. But now it is not working again.
What I have done was to opkg update && opkg upgrade. I could not even successfully do. it I got following errors: (probably due to lack of internet connection.)
Collected errors:
I am pretty sure that: I have internet connection on my cell-phone, power enable mode is not enabled on my cell phone which can disable wifi connection, everything works fine on my laptop. (Tried about 30 minutes and did not encounter any problems.)
Does beagleboard-xm has some kind of a power save mode which can disable internet connection after a certain time?
