If diald comes up when you try to connect to a machine
on the local ethernet, like 192.168.1.1, then you can fix it
by making entries in /etc/hosts for each local machine.
Otherwise the problem could be that you need to add
a network route to your ethernet card, with a proper
netmask. for the IP number you mention, it would be
255.255.255.0.
