InterVLAN routing help

I am trying to setup intervlan routing but my routing knowledge is pretty rusty.

Everything works fine until i try to set it up, it has something to do with the routing protocols/routes since i can get online just fine before i try setting it up.

Router to 3550 switch

Router fa 0/1 ip: 172.16.5.1 Switch fa 0/24 ip: 172.16.5.2

Now, i have configured all my vlan interfaces with ip addresses as well as dhcp. When i move the switchport to the vlan, i can ping the correct gateway for that vlan, can ping the other vlan interfaces, but cannot ping the router?

When i use the no switchport command on switch fa 0/24 i am no longer able to access the internet, but i can ping the router's fa 0/1 interface.

I am sure this is some kind of routing problem, any tips/help?

Have you setup a default route to the router? (i.e. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.5.1) Once you configure fa0/24 as a routed interface, the switch needs to know where to send internet traffic...

have you got routing configured properly (either static or dynamic), your icmp echoes sent from your hosts (assuming the hosts are on a different subnet) are probably reaching R1 fa0/1 but the replies are not coming back to your host because there is no route back to your host's subnet. you need to configure static routes/dynamic routes for the icmp replies to come back to your host

On the switch
(config)# ip default-gateway 172.16.5.1

I figured this out, was a combo of a nat statement issue (was only natting 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.255 instead of 0.0.255.255) and little routing issues
