I have a Linux server setup with a hybrid cable modem (down cable/up phone line)using ip masqurading. Works great.
The puzzle is that whenever I telnet to the server from my computer, the modem connects to the ISP. If the modem doesn't connect right away, the telnet session will delay starting. This is the routing table of the server. Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 207.50.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 0 eth0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 0 eth1 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 207.50.40.183 0.0.0.0 UG 1500 0 0 eth0 Any clues? -- Regards, Michael
