It's a routing problem. Lets say the dialup IP is 1.1.1.1 The TNT has dialup IP 1.1.1.2, and LAN (C class) IP 2.2.2.1 For 1.1.1.1 to ping 2.2.2.10, 1.1.1.1's default route must be 1.1.1.2. It usually is this, because the Max assigns this when you dial in. For 1.1.1.1 to ping 3.3.3.1, the above must hold, AND 3.3.3.1 must have a route to 1.1.1.1 via 2.2.2.1. I suspect that this route is missing. Depending on the network structure and routers involved, you'll something like RIP or OSPF to broadcast the route. > With dialup, we can't ping the gateway (it's the telco/co-lo's router), but > can ping the other servers in the same Class C. The telco's router doesn't know where 1.1.1.1 is. It can't send a packet back. > I use the TNT as an example, but actally, it's not unique to the TNT.

Can you get the telco to give you the output of 'traceroute 1.1.1.1'? > I've been trying and trying to redial to connect to a RAS that sits on > another Class C, but it's 1 out of 7 PRI lines that goes to it.
