The last route looks correct ... the wildcard might or might not be. |
| 45 |
|

Try and remove it and add a normal default route. |

Look up the "route" command if not familiar with the how. |

Just a comment, when ignoring the networking files in an operating |
| 51 |
system to do it yourself manually, dont be surprised if YOU have broken |
| 52 |
something. I usually do my own thing too as I am not impressed with the |
| 53 |
way gentoo handles its networking, though under openrc its better. |
