Below is the way I think my network should be wired. However, I can not get 
anything to connect  with the set up shown. What I have is both eth0 and eth1 
on the firewall going into the switch and then an uplink cable going to the 
cablemodem. If I wire the way I think it should be I can not ping the router 
or connect to the internet.  All computers can connect and function fine with 
the wrong set up. However, I don't feel comfortable that my firewall is 
really protecting me.  This has to be some simple thing I am doing wrong but 
I have tried for months to make it work and no go. Any ideas or howtos that 
might clear the mud from my mind?  Suggestions are appreciated.
