Thanks for your response. I opened the T1 router wide open so that's not
the problem. I think I just discovered the problem though and I'm goin to
test it when I run home at lunch time. I found that a static route had been
defined in "Routing and Remote Access" that was sending traffic in the range
of my cable modem ip addresses to a dial on demand port!! I think this
happened a couple of weeks ago when I was FOOLING around with the VPN
wizard!!!

Thanks
I'll let you know how it comes out.
