Anybody know how to configure a cable modem? I have one. I connect it to the cable. I set Linux up for DHCP. I end up with a dynamic IP address, a network mask, a broadcast address, a default route, and even a name-server. I can ping the name-server. However, I can't telnet or use a Web Crawler. The thing works fine with WIN/2000/Prof. The ISP says they only support Windows. Since I have all the "hooks" working, how do I find a default route that will route my packets to bypass their stuff?
