I do have access to their router, but there is nothing, besides the interface IP address, to configure on it - all routing is learned via RIP. I can't establish any static routes and it's not learning them dynamically and I can't figure out why. I don't want Box_A to be a firewall (yet) - I just want it to route traffic through to my network. Thanks for your help.
