Actually, come to think of it even having the same IP address on both networks may not work. Off the top of my head, it would depend on: 1. Whether your NAT provider sees LAN and WLAN packets coming over different interfaces or the same interface, and 2. Whether your NAT provider is interface-agnostic or not. If your packets are coming over different interfaces, and the NAT box is storing the interface as part of the connection meta-data, then even having the same IP on different networks may not work.
