   It was certainly MY mistake for not having first asked what router you 
were using.  So the "assumption" that it was a POS off-the-shelf $30 
router was a likely and logical conclusion.

   Now go off and learn Cisco IOS and route Protocol-4.  This is easily
done if you know how to use that router.  But then, you *still* haven't
shared with us exactly *what* router you are using?  Model number?  IOS
version?  Interfaces?  Aftermarket/relabled or an original Cisco?  PIX?  
What?

   Your query was still too vague to provide a solid answer...  I'm sorry 
to have wasted your and my time...
