Well, from that I assume 158.152.72.51 ist your local SLIP address,
158.152.1.65 is that of your SLIP Server. The strange thing here is, why
the route to network 158.152.0.0 is attached to lo0? Did you perhaps an
ifconfig lo0 addr 158.152.x.y
Don't do that. If you will have a SLIP connection to the outside, leave
your lo0 address at 127.0.0.1, ie.
ifconfig lo0 addr 127.0.0.1
otherwise the routes (like the one to 158.152.0.0) will be attached to lo0
and will keep packets to other hosts than your SLIP Server from ever leaving
your machine!
Do the following:
ifconfig lo0 addr 127.0.0.1
slattach -l 158.152.72.51 -r 158.152.1.65 &
after that your routing table schould look like:
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Metric Iface
default 158.152.1.65 UG 1 0 1 sl0
158.152.72.51 * UH 1 44 0 lo0
158.152.1.65 * UH 1 5 0 sl0
127.0.0.0 * U 1 0 0 lo0
127.0.0.1 * UH 1 0 0 lo0
and everything should work fine, especially you should be able to reach *all*
machines on the net!

No, modemdev is a complete reimplementation of the serial driver for modem1.
Don't ever install hsmodem and modemdev at the same time (that may stop
modem0dev from working)!
