Newbie alert!

I have installed Proxmox, I can access the GUI but for some reason everything I ping is "Temporary failure in name resolution".

For the network config I have used what I found in my router's info.

IP CIDR is based on other devices in my network. All clients start with 192.168.0. For my particular case it's 192.168.0.111 (192.168.0.111/24)
For the gateway, I have used the default router's gateway which I found.
And for DNS - 8.8.8.8 which in my router's settins is "Secondary DNS".

Any suggestions?

PS: At my first proxmox host installation I used the default network data and I couldn't access the gui after it finished. I reinstall it with the following modification and now I can access the gui but no connection.

Gateway should be the IP of your router. "8.8.8.8" as DNS should be fine but usually you use the IP of your router too because it acts as your local DNS server.

There are two IP:
- LAN IP
- Internet IP

They are both different from one another. Tried LAN IP and it worked. Now I ping freely. Thanks!
