Yeah Stefan. They do take the default route. That is what I am already doi= ng. I even wrote a little prog using a variation of ping to do just that. The problem lies with the fact that, there is a router between my rl0 and = the internet. 1) rl0 -----------> router ----------> antenna ------> ISPx ------> inter= net So the fact that i can ping the hop next to rl0 doesn=B4t mean the link is= up :(. That is why I NEED to ping something on the internet.
