Jesse, I only have one external IP. So it looks like I'm stuck with having nat on the 827. What I really wanted to do is to have all four of my dsl lines terminated on the 2801 router with the hwic 4esw. I have explored that option and it will not work because of a limitation of the hwic. So I was looking for a cheaper solution that would allow me to use the 827 router as a pppoe termination point and then I was going to use the 2801 for nat.
Do you know of any other cheap solution that would work to terminate 4 dsl lines and use the 2801 router for nat? Thanks, Dan.
