Yeah Stefan. They do take the default route. That is what I am already doing.
I even wrote a little prog using a variation of ping to do just that. The problem lies with the fact that, there is a router between my rl0 and the internet. 1) rl0 -----------> router ----------> antenna ------> ISPx ------> internet So the fact that i can ping the hop next to rl0 doesn´t mean the link is up :(. That is why I NEED to ping something on the internet.
