It's very stable, secure, and handles VPNs, multi-WAN, clustering, and traffic shaping with relative ease. I haven't spent a lot of time with IPCop so can't really make a comparison between the two.

If you set the default gw on the LAN interface when you plug in the cable it overrides the default gw from the WAN. check our route -nv to check your routing table.
