Hi Kevin,

When setting up freesco router on a DSL I learned that
Pinging does not work on the internal nic only on the
external under freesco. Your freesco may have the same issue
for your cable connection. Gary says its something to do
with the way the configuration IP forwarding works.

The only way to test it is to do the freesco setup with the
IP's you know are correct and try it.
