Ok, let's see: you say that your eth0 (which I guess is the interface
connected to the ADSL and thus to the Internet) has ip address
192.168.0.1. Then, you use this command to start uml:

UML> linux ubd0=root_fs ubd1=swap_fs eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.0.1

this means that the *host's* tun/tap interface gets ip address
192.168.0.1 as well. So, the host ends up with its two interfaces having
the same ip address (do "ip addr" or "ifconfig" when uml is running to
confirm this) .

yep, I did notice this problem, and tried to change the tun/tap  interface  to 192.168.0.3,
I guess this must be the same network with eth0 of my host system,, but no luck...

If the above is true, try using different addresses for the tun/tap<->uml
network, for example from the 10.0.0.0 pool.

I'll try it out... hope this works.  thanks.
