I agree that the OP could buy an older DSL router for about $30 and I think that would cost less over time than running an additional computer to provide IP Masquerading, which is what I think the OP wants to do (IP Masq). The router probably uses less electrical power than an additional computer would use. 8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
