Title: Help - anybody..... I need routing/NAT help!
Post by: Sandwich on March 20, 2002, 11:23:58 am
Arrgh... my computer is messed up. I'll try to be clear in the explanations:

I have an ADSL connection at home, with the Alcatel Speed Touch Home ADSL modem. That modem is connected to my Win2k Pro computer directly (LAN cable, of course). Also connected to my computer is another LAN cable going to a ethernet switch. All the other computers at home are connected via LAN to that switch. They are all supplied an internet connection by my computer's Win2k ICS.

All the ICS clients are able to access the net with no problems - surfing, Morpheus connects, ICQ works, email downloads - everything. However, my computer has been having major problems connecting to anything except HTTP (surfing), and ICQ. Things such as Gamespy (UDP?), both Morpheus and Kazaa's new program versions, and now even Outlook Express - none of them are able to connect.

A friend of mine (a very busy friend, which is why I'm asking here as opposed to bugging him...) suggested that the problem was in the routing table. I sent him the output of ROUTE PRINT, and he said that I had a major mess there. So here it is, my ROUTE PRINT:

Code: [Select]

IPCONFIG returns this:

        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 212.143.32.216


Now, a bit of clarification: my LAN IP's are manually assigned; 192.168.0.1 is my computer (the other computers on the network are 192.168.0.x). 10.200.1.1 is the IP of the LAN connection to the ADSL modem. My current IP on the net is 212.143.32.216.

So, the problem is that numerous applications are unable to connect to the net. I could reinstall windows, and that might resolve the problem, but I can't afford to cut of the internet to my family for such a long period of time.

So, any ideas?

Why is the PPP adaptor gatwayed through itself?

Code: [Select]

Uhm... I dunno. :p

It is set to use the default gateway on the remote network, does that have anything to do with things?

Does this mean the Sandvich Bar is down? :o

Nope - I've long since moved the Sandvich Bar to GeoCities - the website, that is. That PHP testbed of mine is still on my computer, which is why I haven't made its URL public knowledge. :D
