Connectivity issues

screwball747

Hi,I was upgrading the ios for my lab router but ran into some challenges with connectivity.The pc can ping its own ip address as well as the routers ethernet ip address.The router can ping the address assigned to the ethernet but cannot ping the pc.Now its not an issue of the subnet masks,or cables or the interface as far as i can tell anyway.The ethernet interface is up up.

Looking forward to any suggestions
I was also wondering whats the latest ios i can install on a 2900xl 8mb switch,been searching all over but haven't gotten a solid answer
cheers

If your pc can ping the router from the pc and it is in the same subnet etc, have an up, up interface like you say have you tried turning your firewall off on your pc?

If you look on the cisco doc cd:

You can search your model of switch for the ios's associated with it. but obviously your have to have enough memory to run them
