I can't ping the router or any of the other machines on the subnet. 
This is a machine I'm colocating which happens to be about 50 miles from
my present location so it's kind of a pain to troubleshoot.  I don't
need to run routed since I just need to get to the gateway do I?  Is
there anyway that the router could be poisoning my routing table?

I also noticed that entry in the routing table:
206.103.113.194/27 link#1            UC

With a netmask of 255.255.255.224, shouldn't it show:
206.103.113.194/29 link#1 ?  (I'm assuming that the numbers after the /
are the number of bits allocated to the host address.)



The router is a Cisco if that makes any difference.

Thanks for your help!
