Re: problem with computers on the same gateway? Sounds like "proxy arp" is turned off on that CMTS blade, which is good for local security (no spoofing) but breaks communication between modems on the same gateway (sound familiar?).
It would take a very knowledgeble, patient tier 2 TAC rep sending up a trouble ticket to an equally knowledgeble and patient tier 3 rep to fix it...
[edit] I realized you might be able to set up a "static route" to force you computer to use the gateway for ARP resolution of your friends IP. Right now your router thinks your friends IP is physically on the same network segment so its doing an ARP broadcast and not getting any response (since your friends IP isn't actually on the same network segment.)
I'm not sure about config'ing the router but on a Win2k or XP machine it would be something like this at the DOS prompt:
route add {target IP} {your gateway IP} mask {your subnet mask} -p

The issue is/was as stated by MacLeech, and has since been rectified, reboot your modem(s).

Thanks. I hate trying to play with routing remotely, 2 steps removed on top of that.
P.S. Anyone notice my new GREEN star...
