Maybe it's just me, but I'm a little confused here.
As far as I can read on your e-mail, you have the following:
On network 192.168.0.0 / 24
192.168.0.230 Printer
192.168.0.238 Router
192.168.0.254 Gateway
If you ping from the inside network to any of the three devices (above), the
router should not route anything, because you're pinging to the same network
you're on.
I am not sure how exactly your whole setup is, but you should check that the
subnet mask is / 24 (or 255.255.255.0) on all devices on the 192.168.0.0
network.
Send the config from the router and gateway, plus a description on how all
these things are connected.
Hth,
Ole

Subject: can't ping an address from anywhere but the router itself
[7:30316]
Hi,
I have DSL with a static IP address/24. the gateway
address is x.x.x.254 and the static IP/24 address that
I have assigned the router is x.x.x.238. for fun I
assigned x.x.x.230 to my printer.
all addresses on the inside network are
192.168.0.x/24.
I can ping x.x.x.238 and x.x.x.230 but not x.x.x.254
from the inside network.
I can ping x.x.x.254 from the router (2501 with
secondary ethernet)
I can't understand why the router will route to the
printer (x.x.x.230) but not the gateway (x.x.x.254)
I am confused about my router's prejudicial ways.
any thoughts
