Unable to download packages

[Buzzin]

I had my nas4free running perfect but last we suffered a power cut. When I restarted the server it was hanging on bootup with message the default gateway was unreachable. After a short time it will load.

I done a fresh install, but when I configure network ip address and reboot I still get the same message.
I tried to ping google.com but get 'ping: cannot resolve google.com: Host name lookup failure
I cant download the minidnla package either. When I try accessing with putty I get 'Network error: Connection refused'
I put the same details in when nas4free was running fine, I can access the webgui though and view my share disk if that's any help.

first you need to solve your LAN problems, once done, the rest can be solved too.

You need to ping sucessfully before to start any other task.

try to use HDCP so your router assing a valid IP / Gateway / DNS if not possible reset your Router/gateway and try from start

OK, thanks for the quick reply. I'll keep you posted.

Successfully ping'd google.com. Why I didn't think of resetting everything I'll never know. Set up as DHCP.
I still can't get in to shell with putty, root + password still gives access denied?
I looked at the group list, is there supposed to be a root listed as group because there isn't one.
Sorry if all these questions seem a little stupid, but we never get anywhere if we don't ask questions

Managed to figure it out myself, thank you again for your help.

to log using putty you need to configure SSH ( you need enable permit root login) in webGUI
