All that was posted about the gate ways and having only one default is the
standard way of doming things.

My point is that it was working and it's not the 1st time I setup something
in this manor.

Another thing is this . if it isn't a problem how come if I go to the
network card settings and then on the Support Tab I do a "Repair" it sets it
back and all is working again.

It would seem that this is SP1 that is messed up and the tcp/ip stack is
damaged.

I also can repeat these issues in other systems.
