I am using a private netid and the gateway is on my internal network. I have a default gateway pointing to my external interface. After the system starts and I do a 'route add -net netid gateway' it works fine.: static_routes="route_whatever" route_whatever="-net netid gateway" The errors I get are as follows: route : writing to routing socket : Invalid argument add net : Invalid argument I have looked everywhere I can think of to find an answer to what might be causing this and still don't have a clue. If anyone else knows I could sure use some advice!
