When ping'ing, did you use the -n option? Otherwise DNS problems might still be causing your problems. > 2 - When pinging a URL like www.iglu.org.il (and not a numerical IP address) I > got no reaction at all (possible DNS problem, but I had no DNS problems with > the dynamic address) Did you set up /etc/resolv.conf yourself, or were you hoping that the dialin process would do that for you (maybe it doesn't)? Could it be that you are using a name server but it refuses to serve your new IP address, for some reason? Try "nslookup" manually to see what happens when you do DNS searches. Sorry, I don't have a better guess on what is happening on your system.
