Default routing using GNS3

choobysoo

Hello guys, I have this topology and at the moment i am trying to configure my Router so I can talk to the internet. In this topology, I want to use my physical router, which is 192.168.1.1 to be my last resort for the routing. Can I do that? I want to be able to ping http://www.google.com.. Well, at first I want to be able to ping to its IP address, once that successful, I will at the DNS server to ping with the name.
I can ping from my computer that is hosting GNS3 and from GNS3 to my computer fine. I can use SDM to config my GNS3 router so there should be connection between my GNS3 router and my linksys router. My network is like this. Linksys WAN 24.206.xx.xx --- Linksys WLAN 192.168.1.1 --- PC 192.168.1.2 ---GNS3 Router 192.168.1.10.

Yes, you can connect GNS3 to the real world. There's plenty of tutorials and videos on the net.

What I'm using here is not a loop back adapter but rather my wireless card. I can ping from my GNS3 router to My physical PC and other way around. For some reasons I can't ping from my GNS3 router to my physical router.

Just curious.
When you check the dhcp/host table on your Linksys do you see a listing for your GNS3 router 192.168.1.10 ?
What does it show as the associated mac address? is it the mac address of the wan-facing link of your GNS3 router?
Consider also if these are switch ports vs WICs .
