[ale] Interenet connection

[ChangingLINKS.com]

I tried putting in the IPaddress of the box I ping to get to the internet.
I tried putting in the IP address of the ISPs nameserver.
I tried putting in 192.168.0.1

None of those were successful. AND when I do that route -n I do NOT get a 
0.0.0.0 gateway.
