cisco 2524 router HELP. I can't ping my serial interface

[salbahe]

i have 2 2524 connected together with a serial cable. i configure both serials on both routers but when i tried to ping my seial on locally on both routers i get a timeout.

i checked the cable it seems fine. any suggestions?

this is the 2524 router
Router#sh ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, * - candidate default
U - per-user static route, o - ODR

Gateway of last resort is not set

C 192.168.30.0/24 is directly connected, Serial1
10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets
C 10.7.1.0 is directly connected, Ethernet0

...i dont know what to say but....erase nvram and start over

I never saw the output of show controllers of the second router. If you have a DCE attached to both ends, interface and line prot would be up, but you could not ping. I guess make double sure that the serials in question both have ip addresses, are in the same subnet---I would actually do a 255.255.255.252 mask, and user ppp encapsulation. If you have DCE and DTE, and before you swap the cable, can you ping ethernet from both serials? One more thing before starting over---actually 2---try a static and a default route in BOTH routers (ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 S0 or S1, whichever the outgoing interface is), and if that does not work, try a reload on both routers. If all this fails, erase start, reload, start over, in BOTH routers. Please keep us posted. It has to be a simple deal we are missing, but there's not much to miss! Later. Oh year---try switching the cable around, too.

Sorry joined this conversation a bit late, but is this the config of the Serial interfaces each end??

If it is check the ip addresses, as they are not in the same network. Suggest trying Tim's advice and changing the IP Addresses and change to a 252 mask.
