the only thing i can think of is that its a private segment which has routes for the 192.168.0.0/24 range...
Is there a route on the 192.168.50.246 box for the 192.168.0.0/24 range?

No, not at all. No VPN either.

Anybody else with a Mweb account please try and see if you get the same results? Thanks :)

Its a destination NAT then,
Check the NAT table on the perimiter firewall or router
does it nat 192.168.0.1 to a public ip?

Should be removed when rebooting?

How do I check for NAT on linux?

Another interesting thing - if I add 192.168.0.4 to my PC, traceroute does not go out. But, if removed, traceroute do go out.

i think
iptables -L -t nat

The NAT is probably set for permanent. So rebooting the firewall would prob not remove the NAT .
What firewall is it?
if you add 192.168.0.4? whats the subnet then? because the gateway is 192.168.50. 246, if you arent on same subnet it wont go out?
IE whats the subnet for the local lan you are on now?

Got this mail this morning.

Could there be a relation?

Dear MWEB Customer
You may have heard or read in the media that an MWEB system was "hacked" and some user account information was compromised in the process. The system in question is a web interface provided by Internet Solutions, that is used to provision and manage a small group of customers on their ADSL network. This vulnerability has subsequently been secured.

Please note that there are less than a thousand customers who are potentially affected by this and if you are one of the affected users we will be contacting you to assist with the reset of your ADSL password, as an added security measure. Also note that most of our Business ADSL customers have already been moved over to our own ADSL IPC network during the course of the last few months.

Even though this was a low-risk event please be assured that we take the security of our networks and systems very seriously. If you have any further concerns or questions about this incident please feel free to contact us.

Kind regards
MWEB Operations
