Thank you for all your responses so far... they have been of great
assistance.
However, I am still having a problem. What follows are captures of
'ifconfig', 'route', and 'arp'. I can connect and interact with the
Internet through my Windows98 partition without issue. The linux
partition still refuses.
Note: xxx.yyy.zzz is my network, which is a public /29 range. (8 ips, 5
usable by me)
#ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:20:AF:A2:56:D9

After performing 'ping xxx.yyy.zzz.241' and 'ping 206.124.64.253',
#arp -a
sol.paxumbrae.com (xxx.yyy.zzz.241) at <incomplete> on eth0
gateway.paxumbrae.com (xxx.yyy.zzz.246) at <incomplete> on eth0
Again, my ANT's IP is xxx.yyy.zzz.241
I gather that the arp -a result is a symptom of what is wrong...
Under win98, the arp after the same pings is:
Interface: xxx.yyy.zzz.242 on Interface #x#######
Internet Address Physical Address Type
xxx.yyy.zzz.241 1#-##-##-##-##-## dynamic
xxx.yyy.zzz.246 2#-##-##-##-##-## dynamic
1#-##-##-##-##-## is a perminant MAC address on the ANT
2#-##-##-##-##-## is a dynamic MAC address on the ANT
It seems as though somehow Linux isn't getting these assignments from
the ANT?
Any help or doc pointers would be appreciated. The manual for the ANT
and the information from the line provider/ISP does not include
Unix/Linux setup information, besides stating that this equipment works
with Unix/Linux.
