I have set this box as a ROUTER (nat) and also set up a firewall (ipfw). One NIC card connects to internal LAN , second one to CABLE MODEM BOX. I am able to connect fine to my internal network (through NIC1) and also the internet (NIC2). PROBLEM ------- The problem occurs when I dial up to my workplace using 56 K modem. I am then able to connect to my office network through the 56 K modem but now my INTERNET connection dosent work (NIC2). When I disconnect the 56 K modem connection the INTERNET connection works fine again. I think this has something to do with my "DEFAULT ROUTE" or routing tables or something like that (I am throwing some technical jargons ). How can I solve the above problem? I want both to work at the same time , if that's possible!!
