Errr... you may have to give some more detail here.

When you tell the Qube to use a "modem" to connect, and you
further tell it to expect a dynamic gateway, what this means
is that the IP address of both the modem and the ISP's connection
will change every time you dial into the Internet. So, the
Ethernet network page is now changing the gateway to "0.0.0.0"
since it really doesn't *have* a gateway at the moment. Then,
when you connect to the Internet, your ISP will assign you an
IP address and the Qube will assign that address to be the
gateway address for the duration of the call.

Doesn't sound like you have a problem at all...
