[solved]How to access modem?

I have a DSL Modem. I use pppoe to connect to internet.
In windows and in linux mint if i type 192.168.1.1 as url  i can access it.
But in arch i cannot access it.

[bharani@puvana ~]$ ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2008ms

My rc.conf is

HOSTNAME="puvana"
eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)

[bharani@puvana ~]$ netstat -rn

Re: [solved]How to access modem?

You're addressing your computer within the 192.168.0.x range whereas your modem is in the 192.168.1.x range.

You'll need to update that in the rc.conf

Re: [solved]How to access modem?

Well, I use dhcp and not sure .. But at the risk of sounding stupid, did you try the following ?

eth0="eth0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255"
gateway="default gw 192.168.1.1"

Just changed 0's to 1's ...
