This is what I get when hooked to the new modem directly. root@fireball / # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 2 0 0 eth1 127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 lo 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 root@fireball / # If I read your reply correctly, 192.168.2.1 should be the address. It didn't work. Just for giggles, in case I was reading it wrong, I also tried 192.168.2.0 which also didn't work. So, modem broke or something else weird going on? BTW, I did do a full reset. I pressed and held the button for a good 20 seconds. It says 7 seconds, I wanted to be sure. It should be using the defaults from the factory. Key word, should. Ideas? Dale :-) :-) P. S. Your sig was funny. lol
