if you just have the modem and one pc on the same network 192.168.1.0/24
and using pppoa or pppoe on the modem
then yes, if your doing it with 2 lan cards
in one box, then something like this
modem 192.168.1.1
gateway eth0 192.168.1.254
gateway eth1 192.168.0.254
hub
other pcs in your lan 192.168.0.x
these pcs use eth1 as default route
gateway pc uses the modem as the default route
and the firewall will need to be adjusted to suit.
you should be able to see the modem with a browser from the pc's on your
lan.
