I hope this is the output from the firewall, not the modem (:
Is this router running bridged or not? If it is, then it's not going to manage
to connect to the internet if the firewall is disconnected. If it is not, then
it shouldn't even know of what's on the other side of the router, but just uses
the 10.0.0.138 address as the default gateway.
Here's the route from my firewall at work, which uses ipcop and a bridged
router to adsl ( note that cable setups are different )...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ # route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
111.22.33.444 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.3.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0 111.22.33.444 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0
You'll note that there is a major difference in the Interfaces mentioned... The
firewall just uses the interfaces that are on the box, and DOES NOT MENTION THE
ISP's INTERFACE. This is important, which is why I wrote it in big.
ppp0 is configured by dhcp from clear
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ # ifconfig ppp0
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol

The same info from your firewall should look similar, with your external IP
address set as the IP addr for ppp0.
I recommend that you first get the router running without the firewall, then
you can either bridge it, or remember that you have to open ports on both the
router and firewall if you want to change services.
Some info that may be useful for us to aid you...
Point your browser to 10.0.0.138, and log in ( username is irrelevant, you just
need the password.
Are the Diagnostic tests all passed? ( self test, lan, dsl )? ( Basic->System
Info ).
I'm on ihug, but I think the only different one is telstra...
In Basic->Connect, do you have...
Onterface=pppoa
Destination=pppoa
Mode=Always On
Link= connected
State=up
And the account details for your adsl account configured correctly?
The advanced->Static routing should have sensible values in the IP addrss table
pppoa translation pat...
The (Advanced->DNS) dns server should be enabled, make up a domain name for
yourself - I now use the .site suffix ( mayes.site for you?? ) since Microsoft
bastardised the .local suffix - tick the 'Activate server' box.
The (Advanced->DHCP) dhcp server will probably want to be on if you're
connecting directly, and off if you're using dhcp from the IPCop box
That's about all I can suggest ( As you may have gathered, I'm still happily
using my speedtouch! ),
Or have I completely missed the point and this router is running fine? If so,
you may need just to double check that the DHCP server is off, and the IPCop
one is on, and that your outward (red) facing port has a static IP address in
the same subnet as the router.
