Thanks, I removed the default route on eth0. For reference to others, 
this was done with the following command:

route del default gw 10.10.10.254 eth0

this worked, the route is no longer there.
Not being near the firewall at the moment, I can't test the "routed" 
mode for the modem just yet but will try tonight and keep everyone posted.

However, I have one more question:
This default route is not something I remember having configured, to me 
it gets added every time I reboot the firewall. I looked around and 
found that it could come from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
Can you confirm that I need to remove the "GATEWAY=10.10.10.254" line 
from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 in order to prevent the 
default route from being added on every boot?
I know I could issue the above "route del" command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local 
and then restart shorewall, but I would like a nicer solution if there 
is one.

Olivier
