Thanks Tessa, I feel like I'm so close to getting this working, yet 
still so far!

tethereal reports some interesting results, I'm not quite sure what they 
mean though.

When I ping 64.233.183.104 from my Treo tethereal -i ppp0 reports like this:

ping www.google.com it reports this:

"Host administratively prohibited" - looks ominous, how does I reolve this?

Thanks again for all your help
