I regularly travel with my Aastra 480i. I use a crossover cable or a small hub to connect between my Mac Powerbook and the phone PoE injector. I use the internet connection sharing function to NAT between the wireless network and the phone on ethernet. Things seem to work fine, even with double NAT. This also allows me to authenticate to the stupid hotel networks that have a web login page.
