#1; is the network part of your IP addresses the same on the 3000 as on the
   PCs (the local PCs)?
  -If so, and you can't PING them, then you've either got a broken physical
   connection, or a framing problem (i.e. make sure IEEE802.3 *and* ETHERNET
   framing are enabled in NMMGR)
  -If not, then your 3000 needs a route to get from "it's" network to the
   network the PCs are on; this means a gateway entry in NMMGR.

#2; can you ping the router from the 3000?
  -If so, ok
  -If not, see above

#3; If you can ping the router but nothing beyond it, then
  -most likely you need to add a default gateway entry in nmmgr
   >use the IP address of your router for the gateway, and "@" as the
    reachable networks entry
   >issue a :NETCONTROL UPDATE=INTERNET;NET=LAN1 to make the new gateway
    take effect, then try the ping again
  -it's also possible (but not likely) that the router is configured to not
   let ICMPs (pings) through; if so see router config

There's a paper on our web site (www.3k.com) in the papers area on how to
connect a 3000 to the Internet if you need it. If you get stuck after the
above, feel free to give me a call (703) 569-9189 x25.
