along with Andy's request, a 'netstat -nr' would be usefull.
have you ttied running tcpdump on the interface to work out what packets
you can see?
# tcpdump -i eth0

also, it might be worth looking at the arp table, to see if your picking
up the MA address:
# arp -a


whats the gateway running?  can you snoop on its interface aswell?  i.e.
get a view from both perspectives.
