Once upon a time Paul Wouters shaped the electrons to say...
>145.75.0.0 145.75.75.250 NL 1 ether0
^^^^^^^^^^^

You have the wrong subnet mask set on the ether0 port. You have 255.255.0.0
when you want 255.255.255.0. This PM isn't on the entire B net, it is on a
24 bit subnet of the B class.

With the current 16 bit mask it thinks the entire B net is on the same wire,
locally, so it is using ARP.
