Where an incoming connection gets NATed by the modem and then gets NATed
again by the firewall / router. So you have the problem that replies
don't return to the senders IP !
You don't have this problem if the modem / firewall / router is in one
box as with the Dlink or Linksys. Its much harder to create isolated
zones with with them though.
