What is the IP address of the client that you're using to ping the STN box?
Are you sure your cable modem has the IP address 192.168.88.254?  This is not how cable modems typically work.  Normally, the cable modem is a passthrough device, and the cable service provider gives you a static IP address/gateway/etc, or they tell you to use DHCP.
 
When the cable company came out, what were the settings that they used to set up the single client that the cable modem was plugged directly into?

Hi there
 
This little nice piece of software was just what I have been looking so I couldn't wait to try it out.
 
I made a disk for my machine with a cable modem and two ethernet cards 1. PCI NE 2000 comp. and 1. ISA NE 2000.
 
I use 192.168.0.1  255.255.255.0  and name svr. 192.168.0.1   on the network card    (The PCI one)
 
and   192.168.88.193  255.255.255.0  gateway 192.168.88.254  on the internet card
 
 
when the STN machine has finished booting the screen shows  "Share the net vers. 2.11" and the screen freezes   (Is this right)
 
But all in all I can't connect to the machine from my clients, and can't even ping it.
 
Am I missing something or is this a typpical Netcard problem    ???
 
 
Thanks in advance
 
Farouche
