That's not what's wrong, though. The gateway is what screws it. It adds a default route through 172.16.1.1, which is obviously wrong.As the default route given to you by your ISP's DHCP server gets set before this one, it gets overridden. You should use gateway for your default gateway and _only_ for that. -- PGP public key: http://www.wolfheart.ro/pubkey.asc
