I've gotten to the point where I can type 'dial provider' in ppp and it connects fine. However when I shell out and try telnet ... or ftp ..., it just hangs. I'm pretty sure the problem lies in the route table, but am not entirely sure what it's values should be. My ISP assigns me an IP each time, and I think itself a dynamic one too. I'm a little confused on that since it seems like a dynamic IP on its side isn't needed? Anyhow, I've been using my ISP's default gateway - 129.82.192.1 when assigning IPs, and this is the route table I get: default 129.82.192.1 UGc 0 0 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 10 lo0 129.82.192.1 129.82.192.96 UH 1 0 tun0 (my dyn IP) So my ultimate question is - is this what I want? Or should the addresses on the left end in .0? I've tried using the ISP's dynamic IP in place of 129.82.192.1 but with the same results. Any help will greatly help my sanity. Gerard
