Internet not working after static IP configuration

[xtreameFibre]

Hello everyone,

I have requested for a static IP and been assigned one 2 days ago. Problem is internet is not working since static IP is configured in the router. Is there any ETA when this IP will be activated from backend? Everything seems fine from my end.

Try 255.255.255.255 netmask

Not working with 255.255.255.255 either.

Basic DNS use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I don't think it's a DNS issue, tried Google, Cloudflare, OpenDNS. Still not working.

122.176.0.0/24 has this issue, seems like gateway is not activated for routing. My cousin was alloted this gateway in Noida and he had the same issue. He got it fixed by talking to airtel and get new IP assigned. I am sure if you connect PPPoE it will show 122.161.47.255 as gateway.

also, 255.255.255.255 wont work. Better to use 255.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.0.

I don't think 122.176.0.0/24 is the issue because I was using this series 1 week ago and it was working fine. Well, just had a talk with local engineer and the backend guy, they said there is some issue with the IP assigned to me 2 days ago and they are cancelling it and putting up a request for a new one.

Correct, gateway with PPPoE is 122.161.47.255

Let's see what happens, I keep the thread updated.

122.176.214.x or 122.176.124.x it is?

122.176.125.x
