Rather then having you describe to use what you have configured, please show us
the output of 'ifconfig -a' and 'route -n show -inet'

and then give us a BRIEF description of what you are expecting it to do.  Even
showing us output of different pings and traceroutes that you have tried that
didn't seem to work.

Also, give us the IP setup that your ISP has configured for you.
