And on the above, the mask is: 255.255.255.255 I don't run dhclient or anything so I'm not sure where the config file is, but I'd suggest that in addition to what's already been suggested you probably want to change the above to have a subnet mask matching what comes up under the ifup, namely: 255.255.255.0
How, pls?

[Huh??]
If I kill the dhclient, shut down and restart eth0 and run dhclient again, it still binds to vmnet8, which I thought I'd shut down above. There is no dhclient.conf anywhere on the system – do I need to create one? (Seems like it....)
So, how do I force the dhclient to use the DSL modem as its default gateway and the route to the internet?
