Well, I'm on a stinking dial-up but yours looks like mine as far as
gateways are concerned, yours is eth0 and mine is ppp0.  Do you have
iptables installed and it may be blocking something?  Maybe?  Just in
case I am missing something, here is mine:

root@smoker / # route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
209.215.30.14   *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
192.168.0.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
loopback        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         209.215.30.14   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 ppp0
root@smoker / #

eth0 is a local thing here.  Disregard it on my route.  It isn't even
connected at the moment. 

Now that my IP is out there, pardon me while I reconnect.  Don't get me
started on Gmail.  I don't get a copy of my replies and am hoping to do
a work around pretty soon.
