  A one dimensional network on which there are long range bonds at lattice
distances $l>1$ with the probability $P(l) \propto l^{-\delta}$ has been taken
under consideration. We investigate the critical behavior of the Ising model on
such a network where spins interact with these extra neighbours apart from
their nearest neighbours for $0 \leq \delta < 2$. It is observed that there is
a finite temperature phase transition in the entire range. For $0 \leq \delta <
1$, finite size scaling behaviour of various quantities are consistent with
mean field exponents while for $1\leq \delta\leq 2$, the exponents depend on
$\delta$. The results are discussed in the context of earlier observations on
the topology of the underlying network.
