Re: [cobalt-users] Cobalt RaQ behind firewall



Has anyone setup a Cobalt RaQ behind a firewall with a "fake" IP?  My
DSL company is going out of business (surprise surprise) and I may end
up with an ISP with only one static IP, so I was thinking of giving my
Cobalt a 192.168.xxx.xxx number, I guess my question to you all is, as
long as I open all the proper ports, will my RaQ still function
normally, web, ftp, email, etc..?


Sure, provided whatever box providing the 192.168.x.x IP does NAT/port forwarding.

I like the Netgear RT314 - does port forwarding very well, easy to deal with, and made of steel so when your clumsy roommate steps on it, it won't break. ;)

It also has a 4 port 10/100 switch built-in.
