The figures are correct (I wondered about the unusual GW when I first rx'd it but they said it was correct). The thing is, I've had this connection for a couple of years and have run a number of firewalls with no issue with these ie. Linux Router Project, Freesco and others I have tested. It is running now with a commercial firewall with no problems. Can I force it to accept the gateway IP ? Regards...Martin Just $16.99/mo. or less. dsl.yahoo.com
