I have no use for a tunnel... the other store plays just fine, because
it registers to the STEAMnetwork as .230, and connects to the server
as .230, because it has to cross the line and go 2 miles ^^

Said for completeness, CAserver really doesn't have anything to do
with the problem, but I wanted to be complete.

When the client connects to the CS server(.244).  Because it's an
internal client.  The packet gets routed to the cisco, and the cisco
routes the packet to the CS server (.244), without any translation,
because the Cisco is on the same LAN.
