Can't figure this one out. My users on a particular hub can't ping the gateway or the firewall box to access the internet. I can ping my two servers and any PC that's connected to the hub, but no other PC on any other hub. The route is correct and I've reset my router, firewall unit, servers, and the hub. We are running TCP/IP on NT servers. Why can't those PC's on that one hub hit the gateway, but yet they are touching the servers?

Have you tried swaping the hub to rule that out as the problem? Are you useing DHCP to assign your default gateway? Try running ipconfig /all to make sure your addressing is correct. Check you cables, especially patches between hubs. Good luck!
Are you using DHCP? Check and make sure the subnet mask on the computers not communicating is correct. Also make sure your default gateway is on the same subnet mask as the clients.

Make sure the hub supports IP.
Believe it or not....I've seen a few old cheesy hubs that did not support IP.
Can the workstations on that hub ping each other? Are the servers you mention that they can ping on the same hub?
