That is not a good sign (cannot ping from intermediate router).

Let's trace the route, then (from the router to your ftp host):

Code:

traceroute 164.52.194.12

Code:

Linc-HO>traceroute 164.52.194.12

Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to e2e-62-12.e2enetworks.net.in (164.52.194.12)

Thanks for doing a great job working to troubleshoot your own problem, Bruno.

Without a basic network diagram, it is hard for me to advise, since I cannot readily visualize what is going on.

However, so far, it seems we have some potential issues with subnet masks but I'm not convinced that is the issue, since you cannot ping or traceroute from your router.

Your router does not have any access control lists, and so normally we would look at the next hop; but I don't know where your next hop is.

We could try to figure it out with:

Code:

show arp

But it would be better if you drew a sketch of the Internet (as a cloud) and where your Internet gateways (for your organizations) attach to the Internet, and the devices / hosts in the path (in your org).

Note: See next post about your "10"net WAN.

Right now, there is no path from your router (where you are logged in) to the Internet, or so it seems from what I have read so far. You have done a good job of showing the details. Thanks for your patience.

Can you ping or traceroute to any device on the Internet from your router? If so, via what interface on your router?

OBTW, Bruno,

Your router shows a serial interface on the "10" network. This leads me to believe or guess (at least) that your router is connected to a private wide area network (WAN).

Is that correct?
