        Why? What's the point?

        netstat -nr

        or

        ipconfig /all

        at a client would show the presence of the router.

        Even if you had it proxy arp'ing, it'd still be easy enough to find using "arp -a".

          You can't.  To act as a router it has to be visible on the network.

            I'm sorry, maybe because my english is very bad.

            i need like this:

            C:\Documents and Settings\white>tracert www.yahoo.com

            Tracing route to www-real.wa1.b.yahoo.com [209.131.36.158]
            over a maximum of 30 hops:

            1    1 ms    1 ms    1 ms  192.168.11.1
              2    *    *    *                *                            <–-- like this (hide the router)
              3        *    *    *                  *
              4  242 ms  232 ms  252 ms  203.208.190.45
              5    36 ms    39 ms    50 ms  ae0-100.sngtp-dr1.ix.singtel.com [203.208.183.19
            4]
              6    30 ms    29 ms    28 ms  xe-1-0-0-0.sngtp-cr1.ix.singtel.com [203.208.183
            .61]
              7  216 ms  218 ms  215 ms  so-3-0-0-0.plapx-cr2.ix.singtel.com [203.208.172
            .54]
              8  216 ms  220 ms  217 ms  ge-6-0-0-0.plapx-dr2.ix.singtel.com [203.208.183
            .166]
              9  467 ms  ^C

            at number 2, the router is hide when the client want to trace to internet.

            regards
