Hello All!

Has anyone had dealings with VitalSigns NetMedic?
This program supposedly reports router errors within
an ISP.

Here's the problem:

We are using an array of PM2e's for our NAS.
So each time a dialup account connects, it can hit any
one of the PM2e's. For windows95, we have been instructing
users to leave the default gateway blank, since this is a dynamic
value. Well, NetMedic reports this as an egress router problem,
since the first hop usually times out; windows95 DUN will
not pick up the gateway from the PPP server.

Can anyone offer any solutions to this predicament?
NetMedic has a Notify option which lets you alert your
ISP of the 'potential' problem. This could turn into
a real headache.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Brian.
