The ISDN connection isn't active at the moment.

I don't. The default gateway is set by DHCP from NTL. ( The modem is
connected through USB, but appears to W2K as a NIC. )
>3) Perhaps run the route command and post the routing table!?!
Routing table for the gateway box. (with some addresses changed for
security purposes)

Yes. Ethernet connection to the internal network, Cable modem to the
Internet (and once, ISDN to the Internet)
