opkg not going anywhere

Hi Eildert
Doing what you did, I get a similar result except I can ping out.
One thing necessary is a nameserver, but also iptables probably.
file /etc/resolv.conf in the Neo or Freerunner whould read
nameserver 192.168.0.200
and in the PC I run dnsmasq as the nameserver.
My 2nd machine this was not running, but starting it enabled
ping out etc to work.
My ifconfig gives an lo in addition to usb0
I did write it all earlier, especially the iptables part at
http://home.exetel.com.au/claregj/Neo1973/WhatIdidToSshNeo
(because it was harder with modem wanting 192.168.2 network.)
Good luck, you will enjoy it.
