I do. And mine is about the most straightforward. I have an init.dsl
script that is run everytime my PLDT DSL link goes up. Its contents:

-----[ init.dsl ]-----
#! /bin/sh
IPTABLES=/sbin/iptables
ROUTE=/sbin/route

case "$1" in
   up)
        $ROUTE add default gw "$2"
        echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
        $IPTABLES -t nat -F
        $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j
MASQUERADE
        ;;

   down)
        $ROUTE del default gw "$2"
        $IPTABLES -t nat -F
        echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
        ;;
   *)
esac

exit 0

-----[ end init.dsl ]-----
