I use ppp to connect to one machine on the LAN and responses from it are what you would expect for a 28.8 connection, other machines on the LAN seem much slower. I logged the routing activity and to me there do not seem to be any direct routes between the LAN machines. Should this be what is expected? Can I make a static route for them? How? How about to virtual HTTP servers on the other machines? Here is the routing log from boot to a ppp connection and then using the ppp connection to connect to viritual http on a local machine.
