route table behind router


After a decade of dialup So Cal. Cox finally made me an offer
I couldn't refuse. I've switched but can't connect on my Debian box.
I've spent the last two weeks reading man pages, HOWTOs, searching
the web and Deb user list archives but still don't get it.
The setup is like so:
cox cable-----NetGear router------------Windows box
\----------Debian box

Windows has no problem but the Debian box can still only see the net
via the phone modem and dialup. I've added DHCP via the dhclient package
though since the router assigns the addresses 192.168.1.2 & 3 to the
Debian and Windows boxes respectively I suspect I don't really need it.
I can access the windows box through the router via smbclient.
Even with IPtables that are ACCEPT, ACCEPT, ACCEPT, ... neither lynx
or Firefox can access the inet though they can access the router.

root@/deb40a:~> ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:02:38:DA:9F

root@/deb40a:~> route -n

0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

What am I missing? If some one with a setup similar to mine would show me
their routing table I'd appreciate it as I'm stumped.

Thanks,
Mike
