Subject: trouble connecting to @home cable modem
I always configure my system statically. I have seen special articles
on getting DHCP to work with Cox, apparently it is non-standard in some
way (?).

BTW, that network mask looks odd to me: 

24.1.248.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.248.0   U         0 0          0


Most commonly it would be 255.255.255.0, but Cox told me that mine
would be 255.255.255.128, and that works fine. Try setting it to
255.255.255.128.
