This turned out to be some sort of timing (or MAC?) problem, if I wait long enough and reset enough things, it finally gets to the point where a LAN client can ping the firewall, and the firewall can ping the LAN client through the switch. But the firewall still cannot ping anything on the WAN (except itself). It says "network unreachable". Routing problem? I set the gateway for the firewall the same as that for the linksys router, and the linksys is able to work. Usually. Daffled Dave
