I'd agree that this sounds like a likely fix - but the OP hasn't said yet how he actually connects to the internet. Does he use an RFC1918 address because the modem is already doing NAT, or does he have a public IP and the modem is transparent ? BTW, the modern (as in, for the last decade or two) method is to use "ip" for this. ip replaces a number of separate tools. ip addr add 192.168.100.6/24 dev eth1 "ip addr" or "ip addr dev eth<n>" will show you the currently assigned addresses. "ip route" will show (and add/delete) routes. Etc.
