Jason.

The figures are correct (I wondered about the unusual GW when I first
rx'd it but they said it was correct).  The thing is, I've had this
connection for a couple of years and have run a  number of firewalls
with no issue with these ie. Linux Router Project, Freesco and others I
have tested.  It is running now with a commercial firewall with no
problems.

Can I force it to accept the gateway IP ?
