syslog reports weird routing problems?



Something's weird..whenever I log into a console and connect to the internet I get this: (from syslog and messages too) continuously while I am connected to the internet

my /etc/network/interfaces is:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
# up route add default gw 192.168.0.1
# down route del default gw 192.168.0.1

I think the problem is in the gateway because if I uncomment those I don't get those weird errors anymore but then I can no longer ping outside my network (i.e. ping www.amd.com). I am using a dial-up line so I don't have a "default gateway" or should I?
