Fred,

When you're at home, is the DHCP server the ANG-1105, or is your
request forwarded across the VPN to a DHCP server on your office
network?

What is the subnet mask for your network connections (at home and at
work)?  Presumably, they're something like 255.255.255.0.  If the last
octet is non-zero, you may be on different subnets in the two locations.
This would mean that you need to update your routing and gateway
information as you migrate from one location to the other.

Do you control the DHCP server or servers?  Perhaps their configuration
needs updateing to tell them to always send gateway and routing info
with the lease IP address.
