I have a point-to-point connection established and working great. I have a Cisco router on each end. Everyone at the remote location can login to the network(Windows NT) but they can't get internet. My internet is T1 access behind a SonicWall Pro firewall at address 172.20.1.205. I setup routes: 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.20.1.205 but it still doesn't work. If anyone has suggestions I would greatly appriciate it.

Thanks
 
Do you have any kind of access lists either on the router, or on the Sonic Firewall that might be blocking internet access to a block of IP's? If you do a traceroute from one of hte work stations that can't get on, where does it die out at? (Assuming that you allow ICMP through your firewall) Anyway, we need some more information, configs of the firewall and router would be helpful, but also a more detailed descrition of the network and when the problem started occuring is needed.

The sonic wall probabliy doesn't know how to get back to your remote network, you need to define that address space in the firewall..

try to ping an external site from the sonic wall, then try to ping it from the router hooked up to the sonic wall. this should help u find the problem. make sure icmp is not blocked anywhere, also check all your access lists.
also remember to do a no shutdown on the interface. hack the planet!
