      Can you point me to some docs on the routes file? I have done an 
ifconfig, ifstatus and included the routes file just incase something 
jumps out at you.
ifconfig output

I have Suse 9 on an IBM A31 and when I check kwifi I can see that I am 
on my wireless network and the gateway is set to the waps IP but I can 
not ping the wap or get out on the internet. Any ideas?
Check the route. (/etc/sysconfig/network/routes)
