I think I answered this in another newsgroup or post (although, your post
there may not have had as many details).
Your routing is all mixed up. For one thing, your default gw loops
back yourself. It's gateway should be remote ppp0 IP 203.88.255.241.
You also loop all other 203.88.230.0/24 network traffic back to your own
eth0 IP. Your network on eth0 should not have ANY gw specified (gw should
be 0.0.0.0).
Apparently you need to learn how routing for non-Windows systems is
different from Windows routing. In Linux, a gw is either NOT specified
for a local directly connected network/host (LAN route), or a local remote
IP for any non-local network (WAN route that goes through another router,
or internet route). It is very unlikely that you would ever use your own
IP as gw (maybe for some special loopback network testing or simulation).
This is my best guess of what your routing should look like, without
knowing what your netmask should be for the extra IPs that Rivernet routes
to you:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
203.88.255.241 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 40 0 0 ppp0
203.88.230.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 40 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 40 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 203.88.255.241 0.0.0.0 UG 40 0 0 ppp0
Or if they ONLY route those other 2 IPs to your ppp0 IP instead of a
network (no netmask):
203.88.255.241 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 40 0 0 ppp0
203.88.230.130 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 H 40 0 0 eth0
203.88.230.131 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 H 40 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 40 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 203.88.255.241 0.0.0.0 UG 40 0 0 ppp0
