I looked up your IP address on http://www.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl and it returned:
[snip] Netname: COVAD-IP-2-NET Netblock: 66.134.0.0 - 66.134.255.255 [...] NS1.LASERLINK.NET 208.230.117.66 NS2.LASERLINK.NET 208.230.117.67 [...] Reassignment information for this block of addresses can be found at rwhois://rwhois.laserlink.net:4321/ [snip] Since this is a commercial entity, and I very much doubt you are an employee but rather a customer who has been assigned a 29-bit subnet block (8 static IP addresses, right?) as evidenced by your netmask of 255.255.255.248. This would mean that your network address is 66.134.88.32, your broadcast address is 66.134.88.39, and one of the IP addresses from 66.134.88.33 to 66.134.88.38 is your gateway. Usually, (in 3 of the 3 ISPs with which I have dealt for 29-bit subnets, being Qwest and 2 local Tucson ISPs) in this configuration, the gateway is the next highest IP to the broadcast address, which, in your case would be gateway=66.134.88.38. Try that. If that doesn't work, go through sequentially and try them all in your block (the other 5 addresses for gateway, that is). For further assistance *only if* this is something like your config *and* you have xDSL thru Covad or subsidiaries, could I help you further *if* you provide the following: To what is your network card connected? If it's a Cisco 6xx DSL router, I can definitely help. There are tests you can do on the router, if that's what you have, to see if it's working. However, this kind of help would be *MAJORLY OFF TOPIC* for this list, so please email me privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Michael --- "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It was suggested that I try changing netmask to 255.255.255.0.
