I'm trying to route some traffic but cannot figure out the route commands necessary. I'm setting up a VPN tunnel but no matter what I try I cannot seem to get all traffic routed through the tunnel...here are some numbers that may help...

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.35.117  *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 ppp0
192.168.6.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 wlan0
default         192.168.6.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 wlan0
default         192.168.6.1     0.0.0.0         UG    100    0        0 wlan0

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:206.222.178.239  P-t-P:192.168.35.117  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1400  

wlan0     
          Link encap: Ethernet inet addr:192.168.6.104  Bcast:192.168.6.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

These are how everything is configured once I *think* the tunnel is up and ready, but routing hasn't been adjusted. I can ping 206.222.178.239, and traceroute shows it as 1 hop away. I cannot ping 192.168.35.117. I can connect to external sites, but it's not going through the tunnel.

I've tried a handful of stuff seen across the net while trying to get it to work. The majority of `route add` commands I enter result in a no such process error. A few are actually successful, but either cause me to lose connection altogether, or kills the tunnel.

I thought maybe

route add default gw 206.222.178.139

would work, but that causes the tunnel to hang up altogether.

Can anyone help out here?

Hi,

Your default route is set to 192.168.6.1 you probably want to remove that and try again,

route del default gw 192.168.6.1

See if that helps.
