16 I don't see the original, so I'm replying to this message. My
17 (somewhat non-standard) setup has the following lines...
18
19 config_eth0="192.168.123.252 broadcast 192.168.123.255 netmask 255.255.255.248 mtu 1454"
20 routes_eth0=("default via 192.168.123.254")
21
22 I think that you should specify netmask and the broadcast address in
23 "config_eth0". First, we need to know...
24 - what IP address range is allocated to the machines behind the router?
25 - what IP address does the router display to the machines behind it
26 (presumably on eth1)?
27
28 I've dealt with a multi-port router sitting behind a single-port ADSL
29 modem, and I'm aware that you have to take care that they don't step on
30 each other's address ranges.
