I've connected the T1 line(ethernet interface) to the wan, added all the IP config, but there is no place to add a gateway address to the router?

Whoever uses cisco, please tell me asap.

The internet connections needs the gateway to work

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 <IP ADDRESS OF GATEWAY>

also called a default route or gateway of last resort

routers don't have default gateways, they ARE the default gateway.

He's got a 800 series router, (which I've never used by the way.) for those small ones, don't you have to configure it to function like those SOHO routers?
So I think ip default-gateway can be used on the WAN interface. (unless it's pulling all the Internet routes like the other bigger IP routers that Cisco has)

I believe it should have a web interface which is very easy to use. Just make sure you dont have the newest version of java however. Doesnt seem to play nice with it.

I have an 830 btw.

I got it. Thanks guys. U guys rock.

yes the IP Route worked like a charm. I hate when everyone uses different names.

I had to delete all settings, and start over, it wouldn't let me add an IP ROUTE from the interfacce, only from the wizard, but i got everything to work, and now i can change, and do everything.

thanks again,

You will notice that from the CLI there is a specific order in which commands have to be added and removed.
