I know this one I think. IT comes down to the route table. if you do a route -n it will list all the routes you have. you will need to do a delete of some of the routes and set it up to forward all the stuff for your subnet to the ethernet and set a default gateway to your router. the commands are something like route add gw 192.168.11.0 192.168.11.106 255.255.255.0 eth0 I can't remember it exactly off the to of my head but its all in man route. the important thing is the eth0 on the end.

dummy0? Shouldn't that go out on a real device instead? eth0 for me, normally. Ah. I think I'm getting warm. I assumed "dummy0" was the name Debian gave to eth0. (First time debian user after Red hat).
No, eth0 is a kernel thing. dummy0 is the dummy interface. Your routing table is trying to route over dummy0 when it needs to be over eth0. What does ifconfig -a show?
Now I can't remember where this is set up. /etc/networking or similar, I suspect.
I have also been looking for /conf.modules and don't have such a file.
ITYM /etc/modules.conf... that other name was deprecated some time ago.
