Um, you can ping 212.162.1.124 from 192.168.1.15, but you can't access the internet? You lost me there. I think you just have a broken browser. And check /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf.

i said the browser cant open a page dude ..

pinging the hotmails IP is not useful , i added our ISP's IP in the resolv.conf , but the nsswitch.conf .. what to do with it ?

so you are able to ping hosts on the Interenet? then your connection is fine, it's name resolution that's not working. check the following files:

/etc/resolv.conf

make sure you have a correct "nameserver" entry in it, e.g.

nameserver 10.0.2.3

also check /etc/nsswitch.conf, make sure you have an entry similar to:

hosts: files dns

Hope this helps.
