Hi, here is a list of stuff along with the problem description:

Hardware:

Pentium 200 MMX on a PX5 Abit mother.
64 MB RAM.
Pioneer 504 CD (32x)
D-Link 528CT with a realtek 8029 chip on it.

Problem:

FreeBSD 3.0 installed. Bootup goes fine, recognizes the ethernet card at
ed1. Hooke up with a Motorolla WebSurfer to Shaw@Home (Rogers@Home).
default route, hostname (full name) are specified in rc.conf

Pinging an IP address just sits there, no response at all.
Routed is running with a -q flag.
Pinging something like www.freebsd.com says 'no route to host'

Gateway had been specified using /stand/sysinstall. In which file is that
setting located though?

What's wrong with the damn thing?

ifconfig -a lists my ed and lo interfaces (along with serial and another
one or two which I'm gonna turn off later) fine, no problem there, ip
address is fine, so is the netmask.

@Home hasn't changed an IP address on me yet, that's not the problem.

netstat -rn shows:

Routing tables

Internet
Destination	Gateway		Flags	Refs	Use	Notif	Expire
default		24.65.123.1	UGSc	3	5	ed1
24.65.123/24	link#1		UC	0	0	ed1
24.65.123.1	8:0:3e:0:71:56	UHLW	2	0	ed1	1024
127.0.0.1	127.0.0.1	UH	0	0	lo0

OK, what the hell is 24.65.123/24 ?! My IP should be 24.65.123.47!
And in the next line, what is 8:0:3e:0:71:56? That is not my ethernet
address.

Thank you.
