I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but I've found that, in
general, if you are routing through a point to point link like PPP or
SLIP, it is best to use the "other" end of the link as the routing
address. For instance, if your 158.152.22.16 sl0 interface is connected
to 158.152.22.1, change the above route command to:
# route add -net 158.152 158.152.22.1
