I made sure that everything in proc/sys/net had an "echo 1 >" to it (well 
within reason)

Hosts on LAN have a default route gateway'd to the IP of the 
Gateway/Firewall's eth0 (192.168.0.x), eth1 on the same box is the default 
route out heading towards the NB1300's 192.168.1.1 IP From there its 
supposed to be easy peasy PPPoE my ISP's end  IP is the default gw for the 
NB1300  (routing table on the NB - appears to be correct - and does work in 
some simple configurations as mentioned )

It gets to 192.168.1.1 and stops. Whether this is due to it actually 
stopping there or the replies to the icmp's not getting back is an unknown 
at the moment.

traceroute to 202.72.177.62 (202.72.177.62), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets
 1  fluff (192.168.0.x)  0.523 ms  0.224 ms  0.209 ms
 2  fetch (192.168.1.1)  1.259 ms  2.495 ms  0.929 ms
 3  *

(host names on my LAN consist of short words beginning with F for somewhat 
obvious reasons. It was probably a mistake to name the NB1300 fetch.
I was thinking - fetch: to bring something.
It was thinking - fetch: evil spirit / ghost :)
