Hi ,


BACKGROUND
----------

I have a FreeBSD 4.5 REL box with 2 NIC cards and a external 56 K modem. 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!!


Thanks
Rakesh
