Could you give us a summary of your network interfaces and how they are connected?

After everything done and working, route -n gives me the following:
kamal@kMax:~$ route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 172.23.119.14 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp0
and the contents of interfaces file are as follows; which i guess is really crappy, but still working. any clues on cleaning it up? :P --------- GNU nano 2.0.6 File: /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo iface lo inet loopback address 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0
iface dsl-provider inet ppp pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf provider dsl-provider
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.10.80.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 gateway ---------
Address 10.10.80.1 < this is the addr i chose on LAN, which i don't use any more. Is it safe to remove? Also, is it safe to comment out the `provider` line? i am not using that dsl-provider any more.
