Well I I don't know for sure. What I know is before I do anything, it takes forever to find the route. But if I rerun the network setup, route pops up immediate. And not only that, external network can't reach it until I rerun the network setup. > If `route -n' doesn't show anything, then yes, you've got a problem.
