So you're saying that your default gateway is an IP address that's part of a *different* network/subnet? I don't know how this network has been designed, but typically I would expect that your default gateway would be something like 188.72.255.1 rather than 217.20.117.1 that you've mentioned earlier. Take a look at mine for example: [~]ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FD:6D:4A:C1:69 inet addr:109.xx.xxx.105 Bcast:109.74.193.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::fcfd:6dff:fe4a:c169/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:78742 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:67114 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:35442733 (33.8 MiB) TX bytes:12607832 (12.0 MiB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:8292 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:8292 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1195297 (1.1 MiB) TX bytes:1195297 (1.1 MiB) [~]netstat -rn Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 109.xx.xxx.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 109.xx.xxx.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 So you can see my host has .105 assigned to eth0, and the default gateway is .1 of the same network/subnet. You might want to check that your addressing is correct.
