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
