Yes, the default route established at boot time. It is defined by a route statement in /etc/init.d/network. (I've enclosed a copy of that file). > if you reach the LAN though a NON-default route this should not be a > problem though.

(I use IP addresses in the 192.168.x.x range.) Thanks for taking the time to answer. Sincerely, David
