I have a strange situation. I connect to the internet with 802.11b (from an Asus WL-330g to an SMC7004VWBR 802.11b router), aka wi-fi. I have a Linksys PAP2 that came with a local account for VoIP. I haven't quite got the VoIP working with windows yet, but hope to. What I'd like is to use a "gateway," and then connect other computers or hardware, such as the PAP2, to the switch. there's a diagram at <http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php> that I'm looking at (although I didn't use firestarter). Does this make sense? Here are some pings from the "gateway": [root@localhost ~]# [root@localhost ~]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0A:E6:A0:24:27 inet addr:192.168.2.175 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20a:e6ff:fea0:2427/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:753 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:677 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:485001 (473.6 KiB) TX bytes:62766 (61.2 KiB) Interrupt:11 Base address:0xd400 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:DA:68:8C:B2 inet addr:192.168.0.1 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::250:daff:fe68:8cb2/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:19 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:28 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1824 (1.7 KiB) TX bytes:2442 (2.3 KiB) Interrupt:11 Base address:0xd000 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:2350 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2350 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:2370124 (2.2 MiB) TX bytes:2370124 (2.2 MiB) [root@localhost ~]# route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [root@localhost ~]# ping 192.168.2.1 PING 192.168.2.1 (192.168.2.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=2.58 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=2.60 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=2.55 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=2.61 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=4.68 ms --- 192.168.2.1 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 4003ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.556/3.008/4.681/0.836 ms, pipe 2 [root@localhost ~]# ping 192.168.0.2 PING 192.168.0.2 (192.168.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=0.406 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.360 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.362 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=128 time=0.353 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=4 ttl=128 time=0.363 ms --- 192.168.0.2 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 3999ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.353/0.368/0.406/0.030 ms, pipe 2 [root@localhost ~]# ping www.google.com PING www.l.google.com (66.102.7.99) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 66.102.7.99: icmp_seq=0 ttl=245 time=92.5 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.7.99: icmp_seq=1 ttl=245 time=372 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.7.99: icmp_seq=2 ttl=245 time=177 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.7.99: icmp_seq=3 ttl=245 time=67.3 ms 64 bytes from 66.102.7.99: icmp_seq=4 ttl=245 time=121 ms --- www.l.google.com ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 4002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 67.321/166.182/372.072/109.271 ms, pipe 2 [root@localhost ~]# date Fri Nov 25 16:22:37 EST 2005 [root@localhost ~]# thanks, -Thufir
