Actually, I think this issue is because XOHM wants to set a default gateway
that is outside my subnet of the IP/netmask assigned by XOHM. Here's what I
get when I connect my other laptop to XOHM using a WiMAX usb donble under
Windows:
ipconfig

Route Table
So what is needed in linux is a host route to the gateway IP "route add
-host 99.207.212.72 wmx0" in addition to the intended default gateway
route. This bug has been around for a while, (e.g.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dhcp3/+bug/139217) so I'm not sure
where it should be addressed in this case.
Hope this clarifies, thanks
