Router unable to connect to existing router.

At my work we have 3 old 1941 Routers and 2 2960 Switches.  And I was going to setup a study network to learn routing and switching.

But I have run into a snag setting it up.   The network administrator gave me a IP that is nated out through the company network, and, I was going to use that on the last study router as the made up Internet Provider access.

But I can't get the router to ping the gateway on the company network.  I have the GE 0/0 as the connection out and, GE 0/1 and the internal connection to my network.

I can ping my router all day long no problem but, I can't ping the Company Gateway router from my router.

I am new to Cisco and im not sure how to get it to communicate.

Hello @ChristopherDoyle ,

to get help you need to provide much more details.

 

First:

a) what IP address is on GE0/0 of your lab router and with what subnet mask

post

show run interface gi0/0

 

b) What is the IP address of the company gateway ?  

 

c) Are the two IP addresses in the same IP subnet ?

 

d)  who is the next-hop of the default static route on your router ?

post

show ip route 0.0.0.0

 

These are the first questions.

 

Hope to help

Giuseppe
