Well; gate.demon.co.uk is 158.152.1.65 (or was, last time I looked).

158.152.1.222 is a bit of magic, I think, 'coz although all lines lead
to it (*grin* OK; except for the Dutch), I'm pretty sure that not all
lines lead to the same machine.  Do a "hop check <somewhere>" after
"resolve names n" and no matter where you dial in, you end up going
through .1.222.  (Leased line customers could well be, indeed probably
are, quite different).

Anyway; as we've said, with SLIP it's irrelevant (and ignored).

P.S. "bit of magic" means "I don't know how that bit works" ;)
