Cant connect Solaris 10 with internet with a static ip address

Hi, Guys:
I just installed a Solaris 10 on a PC on my company's network.
The box can get an IP address from my company's DHCP server if I use "ifconfig skge0 dhcp", and it can connect to Internet without any problem.
I can ping the gateway router, dns server, and browse the websites. The gateway router and dns server have different ip addresses.
However, when I assigned a valid static IP address to the solaris 10 box and rebooted the box, it cannot connect to the internet anymore.
It cannot ping the gateway router, dns server. It can only ping itself.
If I do ifconfig -a, I can see the static ip address I assigned to it.
Here is how I assigned static ip address to the box:
I add the static ip address to /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname.skge0, /etc/ipnodes files and rebooted the solaris 10.
I have added "hosts files dns" in the /etc/nsswitch file.
I have /etc/defaultrouter with the valid gateway router's ip address.
Can anyone tell me what went wrong here? Why I cannot connect to the internet when I assigned a static ip address to it?
Please feel free to let me know if you need any output data.
Thanks!
richard

just some quick thoughts:
are you certain that you are configuring the correct netmask in your manual config? If you cannot ping hosts on the same subnet, nor are you able able to ping the default router (which needs to be on the same subnet as your system), that comes to mind.
was your static addressing info provided by your network administrator or did you guess? assuming that the static info is on the same subnet as the DHCP provided info (a /big/ assumption), the "ifconfig -a " info from the DHCP configuration will show the netmask.

I assume you have a Bluetooth enabled PC?
Click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.
http://www.palm.com/us/support/tx/
There are links on the page to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.
On page 287 of the user guide is the section regarding making bluetooth connections. You will need to setup a Bluetooth connection to the PC.
On the main support page is a link to Make Bluetooth connections with other devices. Click on that link and then click on Bluetooth access point connection. Under the Browse the web on your handheld using Web section, follow that setion and see if you can get the connection made to the PC and browse the web.

Unable to connect to the internet with my Fujitsu ...

Ive just got a Home Hub 4 and have connected it to my laptop, a Fujitsu Esprimo V5535. But it is only giving me Local Only Access. Which means I cant connect to the internet. The Home Hub is working fine as my netbook and other mobile devices are all connected ok but my laptop isnt.... Is there anything I can do to resolve this?

Did it connect to the Internet with your old homehub?
Make sure the network card drivers on the laptop are up to date using the manufacturers website rather than Windows which can be out of date. You will need to connect by Ethernet cable to download them or download them on another device and copy them over.

WRT 120N- Cannot connect to the internet with more than one PC at a time.

Before I went on a three month vacation,I could connect 3 or 4 PC's either wireless or wired to my router with no problems at all.I have a desk top and a laptop computer which I use at home.After I returned,I found that I could connect to the internet with only one PC at a time.
If I was say,connected via my laptop,my desk top would continuously keep getting disconnected and vice versa.I have been reading the suggestions from experts here and have done a few checks based on them.I also cannot get to my router page which is 192.168.1.1 I keep getting a message that says "Problem Loading Page" and this happens with both,Firefox and Internet Explorer.I am running Windows 7 - 32 bit on my desk top and Vista Home Premium on my laptop.
I have opened the "Command Prompt" dialogue and pinged 192.168.1.1 and thereafter I typed in "ipconfig".These are the results:

I presume that this model is a modem **bleep** router as I do not have a separate modem with my system.I have a DSL connection and the firmware version of my router is ver.1.0.If I recall,I did upgrade to the next firmware upgrade a few months after I purchased the router but I am not sure.
I use both my PC's to run a small business venture and I am worried that resetting the router may cause some other problems and will stop me from using the internet.
The Command Prompt information above was taken from my laptop.
Any help will be really appreciated.
Gerard.

The results I obtained using ipconfig in the command prompt have already been mentioned in my OP.
I do not know if the above result is what it is supposed to be but I still cannot access my router's home page.How do I verify if there is a proxy server and if there is one,how do I disable it in my browsers?This problem occured suddenly as a few months earlier all was well.It's getting rather frustrating.
I suggest resetting the router. Make sure firmware is updated. You can download it here - http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT120N. After firmware upgrade, reset and reconfigure. Just access the link below to guide you setting up the router.

how do i connect to the internet with my ipad?

Did you turn WiFi on in the Settings App? If WiFi is turned on, your iPad should be able to see any WiFi networks that you can connect to and you should be able to tap on one of those, enter a password if needed and then tap the join button.
I get the feeling that you know this and the problem needs further explanation so ... Can you explain in more detail?

My imac and ipad2 will not connect to the internet with Windstream using an 2wire DSL modem.

Help my brand new imac and ipad2 will not connect to the internet with Windstream using an "2WIRE" DSL modem. Windstream tech service is useless. i can connect with the built in router through Ethernet or wireless, but still no connecting to internet, help! windstream said everything is working on their end, yea right. What i do know is that both the mac and ipad work at other places and can connect with wireless connected to the internet, so i know it's not the apple products.
these are brand new machines with lion.
This is my first mac, so I’m still new to how it works, which is not helping either so a detailed help would be great. Please help before my wife losses it
thanks

There is a 2701HG-B, and a 2701HG-D. If not labelled on the modem, ask Windstream which one they presently supply or how to tell the difference.
By the way tell your wife it isn't that bad. At least you have an ethernet DSL modem. There were times where DSL modems had RJ-11, USB, and Ethernet, and all three were used to provide access. At least now only the craziest DSL providers still use those modems.

Can no longer connect to the internet with the 580...

Hi, my PC was able to connect to the internet with my 5800 via a USB cable. Now, I can no longer connect to the internet with the 5800 via a USB cable.
I had never tried connecting the computer to the internet with the 5800 via Bluetooth prior to this incident, so I tried that. Strangely, it works.
My question is how come I can no longer use the 5800 via USB as a modem, but how come the 5800 via Bluetooth still works as a working modem?
Sorry, if my sentences are confusing. I have a terrible headache at the moment. While the Bluetooth connection works, I just feel better using the USB connection and knowing that my 5800 has a clean bill of health.
BTW, my PC is on Windows 7 Professional at the moment. I've tried uninstalling the Ovi Suite and reinstalling it, but that didn't work. I've also tried using PC suite instead of the Ovi Suite but that didn't work either. What other options do I have, beside hard resetting the phone? Thanks in advance.
Edit: BTW, the message shown when I tried to connect to the internet with the 5800 USB modem was "failed to establish a network connection".

Can't connect to the internet with airport or firewire

I can't seem to connect to the internet with airport or firewire. I recently restored my old G4 mac mini PPC 1.42 (with airport and bluetooth) Tiger 10.4.8 with a new harddrive. I have it connected to my leopard mac pro, internet sharing is on (both computers), the systems are connected, however, the mini just can't connect to the internet. tried it also using airport, no go. network diagnosis seems to go in a constant loop.

works ok with ethernet connection though.
that'll work.

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?

Lots of hotels in the DR have WiFi. And there is plenty of cellular coverage in Santo Domingo (and elsewhere).
One thing to be careful of, the WiFi networks are usually not secured and are very vulnerable to people "listening" for passwords and user names, so don't do any financial transactions online and perhaps consider setting up some temporary passwords for the trip and changing them when you get home.

No connection to the internet with MINI

Hello from sunny Jerusalem.
I got a problem - my IBook connects to the internet via ethernet jack from the router in the apartment next door .
I had unplugged the IBook and plugged the same jack in the new MINI and there is no connection.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=578432&tstart=0
all the advices lead me to beleive that i am an idiot !
Posting this from work using my MINI which i had connected here.
Any input anyone?
be well and safe.

Since it works on the iBook, the check the network
settings on the mini.
System Preferences -- open Network -- check the
settings on the Built in Ethernet Connection. You can
compare it to the iBook. It should be configured to
"Using DHCP".
If it isn't a settings problem, and it works on the
iBook, then you probably have a bad ethernet port on
the mini.

You'd see that there i stated that i had taken the MINI to work and had internet connection there as well, which proves that the ethernet port is fine, also i had stated that the info from TCP/IP in the IBook i copied to the MINI's...
but my poit is that i did not need to do anything at work with my MINI- just plug the ethernet and go !
I shall go directly to the router when there is a chance.

My ipod says the connection passcode for our internet is incorrect when the same passcode connects to the internet with our other electronic devices.

my ipod has always been able to connect to the internet until this past month. i have the passcode for our internet written down but it says the passcode is incorrect. our other electronic devices work and connect to the internet with the same passcode. what should i do?

Try the following:
- Reset the iPOd. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
