 Lou, 

        Let me get this straight You have three devices on a ThinNet 
segment two in the same sub-net (assigned by your cable modem provider) 
and the third your AS/400 not part of the providers sub-net. 

        Therfore if you assign a private IP to the AS/400, say 
172.18.100.1  and add a route to the 172.18.100.0 network in your PC via 
the assigned (PC) addapter address, as well as a route in the AS/400 to 
the PC's address via the 172.18.100.1 address you should be in business.  

        My guess is that you will all ready have a route in the PC that 
indicates the Default route is the Cable Modems (Routers) address, just 
leave it alone.  Win/95 use the "route add ......" command. But if you do
not mind, what cable provider is using a non-standard address with who's
modem product ??  

        Hey Mark B ?  what is the permissable Class assignments in the 
AS/400 ??
