Cannot setup static ip for eth0, but dhcp works fine?

Question

I tried to setup static ip for wired internet, but I only managed to do so for my wireless internet. I cannot connect. Here's various files and command I run to test.

$ ping 8.8.8.8
connect: Network is unreachable

$ route -n

Is there a problem with my setup?

Try to : sudo systemctl stop networking and then sudo systemctl restart dhcpcd and then check the config — MatsK, Sep 20 '17 at 16:20

"Is there a problem with my setup?"

It depends; asssuming you are using Raspbian Jessie, you appear to have successfully set static IP according to what you have specified in /etc/dhcpcd.conf, but we have no way of knowing if this is correct, although I may ask WHY?

See How do I set up networking/WiFi/Static IP

You should use ip r rather than the deprecated route -n. This provides the same information, but is much clearer.
