Having a problem with Arduino Mega and Arduino ethernet shield w5100

Hi everyone, it's only been a half a year since I started using Arduino. Moving on, I am having some problem creating web server using Arduino Mega and Arduino Ethernet Shield. I don't know the basics of ethernet shield, so I tried to use the example code in Arduino program. Arduino program is working fine, however I can't seem to enter the web server. How can I fix this? I entered the code and connection of Arduino Mega and w5100 ethernet shield.

}
Serial.println("Ethernet WebServer Example");

// start the Ethernet connection and the server:
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip);

// Check for Ethernet hardware present
if (Ethernet.hardwareStatus() == EthernetNoHardware) {
Serial.println("Ethernet shield was not found. Sorry, can't run without hardware. :(");
while (true) {
delay(1); // do nothing, no point running without Ethernet hardware

Serial.println("Ethernet cable is not connected.");
}

your code won't even compile never mind run

  Web Server

 A simple web server that shows the value of the analog input pins.
 using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield.

 Circuit:
 * Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13
 * Analog inputs attached to pins A0 through A5 (optional)

when run and a client connects the serial monitor displays

does the IP address 192, 168, 1, 177 match your subnet?

You are specifying your IP address as: "202.21.127.167" but you don't specify the Gateway Router Address or Domain Name Server Address. Those are both going to default to "202.21.127.1". Are those default addresses correct for your network?

Hi there, so I changed the IP address which wasn't correct, and tried the code that you advised, but in the serial monitor it shows this: (Oh and I tried setting up the gateway like johnwasser suggested)

which Ethernet library are you using?

using the Ethernet shield V1 (5100 based) I see that at some time I replace the standard Ethernet library with https://github.com/Wiznet/WIZ_Ethernet_Library/tree/master/Arduino%20IDE%201.5.x/Ethernet/src - I remember I was having trouble getting the V1 to work with my new router

It's done. Thank you. I guess the problem was in the library
