All hosts on 192.168.4.0/24 have a default gateway set as 192.168.4.1.

I can ping 192.168.4.1. My default gateway is 192.168.6.1.

It sorta goes like this I think(from traceroutes):

192.168.6.1 ---------------------- 192.168.4.1
   |                                  |
192.168.6.0/24                       192.168.4.0/24(including me)

Hope this explains it properly. Thanks,

David
