Vista DHCP and 0.0.0.0 Default Gateway

Netsetman works great for me on my laptop, except for dhcp.  All settings are retrieved from dhcp, but dhcp has an entry of 0.0.0.0 for the first entry, then the correct one as the second entry.  This doesn't work for a setting. 

My officemate has it installed in the same gateway laptop with XP and it works flawlessly.

Does anyone have any ideas about this issue?

Re: Vista DHCP and 0.0.0.0 Default Gateway

This is the second time I hear about that problem with DHCP and Vista.
However I haven't found out yet why this happens sometimes. I'll try to find out what the reason might be and how to solve it.

Re: Vista DHCP and 0.0.0.0 Default Gateway

tried 2.5.0 version of NetSetMan (reldate 20080910) and I'm seeing the same. working like a charm with static ip config, but getting 0.0.0.0 as first default gateway for dhcp. for me in DHCP env this causes internal resources not beeing available (external seems to be working fine). initially thought it might be something else despite of the fact that it appeared together with recent NetSetMan installation. colleague suggested to use "route delete 0.0.0.0" to get rid of it which did hel. however now I see it back each time when NetSatMan re-connects in the dhcp environment. if there is any more information/any additional testing I can to to help locate the problem - just let me know. thanks a lot for the good app

The new version 2.5.1 solves that problem.
