Of course not! Some host _on_your_subnet_ must be responsible for forwarding the packages. And a route has to be set so your machine knows where to send the packages beyond your local subnet to. That is the gateway. It is just a shortcut to define the default route. So the installer is right. -H -- Henning Follmann | hfollm...@itcfollmann.com
