Hello, You can try this link: http://www.gnulinux.com/ldp/installguide/node8.shtml or the following has more to do with your specific case: http://www.gnulinux.com/ldp/howto/PPP-HOWTO-25.shtml Or somewhere else on www.gnulinux.com I think that you need to add a route for your modem or ppp0 Something like route add -net <ipaddress> netmask <ipaddress> gw <gatewayaddress> dev ppp0 (command wrapped around) Check the route man pages. The article mentioned that you want to make your dial up your default gateway and add the route on your ethernet network card. Hope this helps (I will need to set this up on my laptop eventually :).

Anyone out there who can help me?
I tried to set up an internet connection in SuSE Linux 6.3 - done that many times before. Trying to get to any web site just tells me route not found. For half a night I could not work out what the problem was or what was different on that particular configuration. Eventually I found out that if a default gateway was assigned to the nic - the internet connection was not able to assign a gateway to the ip settings. Now I could use wvdial and change the scripts that it deletes the default gateway before dialling and restores it after exit. But I don't believe that this is the only way. and I want to use the kde dialler anyway. NT seems to have no probs with multiple gateways. The only documentation that I could find told me that in my case imp in deep s*** and I would need a considerable amount of tcp/ip knowledge to get around this problem. But i can not believe that it can be that difficult!
Is there anybody out there who can advise me what to do, or point me in the right direction towards how-to's, readme's books or websites? You would make my day!
