That line is commented out. Not sure why it didn't show up that way in my post. Tried uncommenting it with no effect. I don't understand what it's doing there. Pinging my router as root still gives "Operation not permitted". It says I'm sending packets but none are received. At this point I'm completely snowed to the point where I'm tempted to try the M$ solution (reload the OS). So far I'm fighting the temptation. If it wasn't or the fact that I can connect w/ eth0 using other distros I would suspect the router.
