Yes, but no - this isn't the issue - my DSL router is just that. I have 3 boxes connected to it, all real Internet IP. 2 are 'standalone' (Linux and a FreeBSD), i.e. run their own firewall, and the 3rd (the NTP server box) runs NAT and such for my home network. The router is just a DSL modem really with a switch really. I have no NAT, firewall or anything running on the router - it just 'routes'... And I forgot to say, when this first starting happening, I bought a new router... same issue. Incidently, I am on BT's DSL1 backbone pipe.
