This is a mess!
Line 6 says that the IP address 24.163.164.1 is on eth0 which is accessable
via 192.168.173.1. This is impossible to do. At minimum, you would have
to do IP Aliasing on eth0 to put two IPs on it but it isn't recommended.
Line 2 says that IP 192.168.173.3 is on eth0 and its default gw is
192.168.178.1. This is probably a host but isn't required.
Line 3 says the 192.168.178.6 IP is on eth0. Again, a unnecessary host
route.
Line 4 says that 192.168.178.0 network is on eth0. Good.
Line 5 says that 127.0.0.0 is on the lo0 interface. Good.
Line 6 says that the default route OUT is on eth0 with an IP of 192.168.173.1.
This is probably good buy using the WRONG interface. You really
need another interface line eth1, ppp0, etc.

This is happening because your routing is HOSED. Explain to me
your IP addresses, interface names (eth0, eth1, ppp0, etc), and
I can help you fix this. What distro is this?
