    Assuming the DSL connection is coming through the ethernet card,
you need to add a line to your core.ini.  Instructions are in readme.txt.
(It's trying to connect via your modem, which isn't how your connection
is established.)

Hi John,

1. Make sure you have the core.ini entries for a cable-modem.
    Read the readme.txt file in your GPL folder.

2. When you click on the VROC: Joe Doe selection on the
    right side.  The IP address should appear on the left
    side of the screen (under your connection selection).

3. If you have 2 ethernet cards, like I do.  Clicking on
    the VROC name from the address book turns my
    connection selection (on the left) back to my LAN
    ethernet card (not the one attached to the internet).
    Just click on the down-arrow and select the proper
    TCP-IP entry.

4. Click the Green Flag and go racing.
