I have two network interfaces (wlan0 and eth0) well I was messing around with routing issuing command like such "route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth0" and now eth0 is completely borked. It is not a hardware issue because it works completely fine under Windows XP and always has but after i issued that command and messed around with some Network Manager I get this
[root@ZuraJack sean]# ping 192.168.0.1
PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 192.168.0.2 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.0.2 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
is there any way I can just delete all my routes and start over?
75.13.41.*** * 255.255.255.252 U 304 0 0 wlan0
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default adsl-75-13-41-### 0.0.0.0 UG 304 0 0 wlan0
that is my route output

Sean-Der,
can't you just reinitialize your network ?
One way will be to just reboot. If you don't want to do that, you can always restart the daemons in /etc/rc.d, depending on what
you use to manage your network, netcfg, wicd, whatever.
For example for netcfg, '/etc/rc.d/network restart', and possibly '/etc/rc.d/net-profiles restart'.

I have done both. So I guess you can assume it is an issue with something else. It is not an issue with hardware as it works in windows and no conflicts with wlan0 as when disabled I still get the Destination Host Unreahcable. Anyone else got any ideas thanks for the input thought Mektub it is greatly appreciated!
**EDIT**
Does anyone have any idea on what in Linux could be causing this issue. It is not a networking address or hardware issue as it works in Windows is there anything short of me starting over from scratch because I am not a huge fan of having inoperable PC

Sean-Der,
if even a reboot doesn't solve the situation, I think the configuration files aren't correct anymore.
Perhaps you edited directly or through some front-end files like /etc/rc.conf, files in /etc/network.d, /etc/wicd, etc
Hopefully you didn't touch files in /etc/rc.d, but even that can be reset by reinstalling the applications with pacman.
It depends on what you are using to manage the network: netcfg, network-manager, wicd ??

I did edit /etc/rc.conf for routine stuff (added some daemons and set up my wireless and eth0) nothing that should be causing the problem. Hmmm...
