(continued from dsl dilemna thread)
I think my problem is that I defined 2 *dftroutes and have the 2 routers in 
same lan segment: 
a dsl router for vpn access for remote iSeries users, 
and a T1 router/firewall for iSeries webserver & pc internet traffic, email, 
etc. 
iSeries with 1 ethernet card  10.10.10.10 subnet 255.0.0.0
and a public ip 70.x.x.x for web traffic (firewall only allows port 80 thru to 
iSeries).
dsl router 10.10.10.11 (all users thru vpn assigned a 172.x.x.x private address)
T1 router 10.10.10.12
I have a *dftroute to each router. This has never worked. For a while webserver 
worked fine,
but dsl did not. Telco changed dsl config & now it works but then webserver 
unreachable from web.
iSeries can ping both routers on the lan. It seems confused by 2 default routes.

If having 2 routers, do they need to be on different lan segments?
Will this work? (idea from a thread in Aug 2001) - 
iSeries 10.10.10.10 subnet 255.255.255.0  
and also 10.10.1.10 subnet 255.255.255.0
dsl router 10.10.10.11 (same as before)
T1 router 10.10.1.12   (and forwarding web traffic to 10.10.1.10) (changing 
this router to x.x.1.x)
*dftroute    *none        10.10.10.11
*dftroute   *none        10.10.1.12 
There is nothing unique about remote address of vpn users thru dsl, or web 
traffic users thru T1.
Is iSeries smart enough to know which dftroute to return on (because it's not 
doing it now...) 
Is this such an odd setup?
btw - even though current subnet is 10.0.0.0 - only 10.10.10.x addresses have 
been assigned in this network, either fixed or thru dhcp.
