That certainly makes sense when you have multiple IPs that are routed by the same default gateway(most often in the same subnet, but it appears that the OP had two different subnets from the same ISP that could use the same gateway, I had a similar setup once but the subnets were adjacent (two /28s right next to each other, as the ISP wasn't willing to allocate a /27)). Certainly not a situation I like to have to deal with(two different subnets going to the same gateway), too complicated. nate
