Ok .... This is possibly a solution, at least for people using
Windows XP Pro (I don't know about Windows XP home edition).
I still have to check if this can be configured on per connection
basis (and not globally on all PPP+TCP/IP connections), and to find a
way to set up a route to the connection host or subnetwork (for the
only or few IP addresses it uses) instead of this default route.

Such functionality exists in all versions of Windows that I remember,
certainly back in NT4, though named slightly differently as I remember,
and it does exist in XP Home.

It /is/ a per-connection property. ((I wrote, "On the connection's
properties..."))

And finally, in the no default route case, a classful route is apparently
added, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/254231, [...].


I have to wait for next monday for checking that.

Hoping your experiments will confirm this. :-)

They did.
.... at least in WinXP and Win98 (I don't have others).

Thank you very much. :-)
