Each time I dial up to the isp the /sbin/route takes a horrible long time to 
display anything, order of 20 seconds or so.

this is the result
---------

192.168.1.20    *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         192.168.1.20    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 ppp0

------
1.20 (obviously) is the isp's ip address (yes folks we use 198.162 
exclusively here)

here is the output of /sbin/ifconfig
-----------

          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0

I assume the problem is some sort of arp/rarp reverse lookup? I am out of me 
leage with this stuff. Hints please?
