I have a dilemma! We put a new T-1 line in at a branch location. When I tried to set the Gateway IP for the WAN and the WAN IP with the new ones from the ISP we cannot reach the Internet. I can hook my laptop directly to the router (FE0/0 port) with a Crossover cable, bypassing the firewall and set my IP address to one of the public IP’s from the ISP and the WAN IP as my gateway, I can get out to the Internet; so I’m figuring that the firewall isn’t passing through the requests from the LAN gateway to the WAN gateway, but I can’t seem to find the culprit. I can ping the LAN gateway IP but not the WAN IP, and I can ping both of the DNS server IP’s from the ISP. Do you have any ideas on where to start looking?
