[innojohn69]

Why is it that when I try to connect the router(2621) to my DvD's Ethernet port and try to run a static connection,it won't go through?

below is my sh run.Thank you.

Hi,
I didn´t understand what do you want to do, but I see 1 unnecessary/wrong command:
ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
You don´t need to add "connected" networks into routing table, it will be added automatically.

And also there is missing rest of configuration.

Also don´t forget that this router doesn´t support MDI/MDIX so you need to use crossover cable to connect directly to end device.

I am trying to connect to the DVD player but it has to be through static ip configuration. If i dont add the op route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 which is the gateway router, then I guess it wil not route. Tell me if I am wrong.

Where am I missing some pieces of configuration to be specific, I just started doing this no so long ago. Thank you.

So at first please confirm few things:

1. Your ISP is on network 192.168.1.0/24 and next-hop IP address is 192.168.1.1
(usually ISP don´t block ICMP protocol, so just ping 8.8.8.8 from router and you will see if successful)

2. You connect your router directly to "cable" from ISP and also that you are connecting DVD player directly to router.

3. If your DVD player supports MDI/MDIX. Also, what type of cable are you using between DVD player and router ? Straight-through or crossover?

4. what IP address is set up on DVD player, and what default gateway ?

5. Remove command "ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1"
Information about network 192.168.2.0 is added to routing table automatically as directly connected to interface

6. Send output of command "ping 8.8.8.8 source 192.168.2.1"

7. Send output of ping command to IP address of your DVD player.

8. Send output of command "sh ip int br"

9. Send output of command "sh ip ro"

These above thing should be enough to start troubleshooting.
