OK, thanks Muzza, now I am back where I started with the added value that I can reach eth0 from the pda. BTW: route complained about the 'netmask 255.255.255.0' by saying that "Setting a netmask of 000000ff is without meaning with the -host option". Same thing it complained about when I used 255.255.255.255 Now my route on the desktop looks like: Destination Router Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface pda * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 usb0 192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 route on my pda looks like: Destination Router Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usbf 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 usbf Leaves me still without Internet access for the pda. Oh, wait, you wrote something about setting it up on the router. I'll check. wobo -- Public GnuPG key available at http://www.wolf-b.de/misc
