traces to any part of my subnet from random systems on the net all get to
the WAN interface and then they start getting dropped (even with the
firewall completely turned off). So I know that the IPs are properly routed
to me.
Thanks for a reasonable response.
It's much appreciated.
P.S. the reserved IPs you are probably talking about are the "network" IP
(the first address of your subnet) and the router/modem IP. There is also
the "broadcast" ip, which is the last IP of your subnet. The network and
broadcast IPs are part of the IP standard and if your modem is on the same
subnet as your LAN, then the first usable IP is almost always assigned to
the modem/router. The e-mail they sent you probably wasn't accounting for
the "usable" address range which is why you generally need to subtract 3 IPs
from the amount you are "assigned". e.g. a /29 which has 8 IPs only has six
usable IPs (#0 is the network address, #1-#7 are usable, #8 is the broadcast
address). Then the router/modem takes up #1 leaving you with five IPs
#2-#7....
Thanks again!

Just curios, how many ip's do you have? Have you tried setting this up in
an isolated network just to see if it works? I had a problem with
bellsouth
not really assigning all of the ip addresses they claim they did. The
first
two in the range were reserved, yet they reported them. When i assigned my
router to one nothing worked at all. I am just wondering if this may be
part of the problem. I will set up a few boxes this weekend without nat
just to make sure, but i am pretty sure it does work.

That's the whole point. Please read the documentation, and research 1:1
NAT to see why it will work for this purpose.
