That looks better.  Can you ping 198.77.21.4?

You still don't have a default route.  Do:

# route add default 198.77.21.4

After that, try:

# ping 198.77.21.4 
# ping 198.77.1.3
# ping Access.Mountain.Net

I've never seen NS in resolv.conf before.  I meant to mention that
yesterday, but it slipped.  I've now checked in the documentation, and
I can't find any mention of it there, either.  If you can ping
198.77.1.3, but you can't ping Access.Mountain.Net, replace NS with
nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf.  Either way, let me know what happens.

If all this works, we're not done yet.  We still need to put it back
into /etc/rc.conf.  But we'll do that when things are working.
