MicroRouter + NW3.12 (Help!)

Is anyone currently using Netware with a Compatible Systems 'MicroRouter 900i' 
I am having quite a bit of trouble configuring it work with my small ( < 40 pc 
) ethernet setup, of NW 3.12. Here are the specifics.

Netware 3.12
MicroRouter 900i
Zero-One Tec. 16bit Ethernet cards
Bus Topology using 10Base-2
General Datacomm 56k Modem feeding T1 dedicated connect to our ISP

Now, my problem could be in practically any place in the setup. I don't 
profess to be an expert with TCP/IP, so bare with me.

My autoexec.ncf file, is quite simple, and I actually know that local routing 
with TCP/IP is working fine, (example, without enabling the router, TCP/IP 
apps work fine when connecting from workstation, to file server provided 
daemons such as ftp, http, gopher, etc., )


I'm loading tcp/ip using the following

load tcpip forward=yes rip=on

Anything wrong with this ?


After loading my NIC driver a second time (after loading and binding ipx) , I 
this time bind it to 'ip' by doing the following..

bind ip-card to ip addr=198.164.89.89 mask=255.255.255.252 gateway=198.164.89.1

If I expect my router, to be setup as 198.164.89.1, (my ISP tells me 
this is what I should use, I've been assigned a class C address of 
198.164.89.0, with and told to use the netmask 255.255.255.252).
Will this line suffice ? The problem i'm getting is an error message 
saying ' 198.164.89.1 is not on the same network however netware will assume 
198.164.89.1 as the default gateway' (or something very similar to this)

The only other information I've been give regarding setup from my ISP is, that 
my WAN port should be 198.64.27.16, and their WAN port is 198.64.27.17


Please, offer some help, if you can, or point me in the right direction.
