Re: [cobalt-users] Qube 2 and Network Design

Why not just get a broadband router to put between your dsl modem and your
network you can get them for around $150. You can use the router to run NAT
and hand out IPs to the clients on your LAN. Then you can map ports to
certain computers on your lan to enable internet access from the internet.
Just a thought.
