[BAWUG] No Cat questions ..

[bm]

Hi,

I know alot of people on here have set up alot of different sort of hardware, so I'm wondering if anyone has run into this.. I have a wireless AP which is the Siemens Speedstream 2623, it's just a basic 802.11b Ap with a print server and 3 port hub/dsl router unit.. got it for about $50 canadian a while back.. not bad price.  So I have previously used it with WEP but decided to try out NoCat, fired up the old P133 with RH9 and dual eithernet ports and loaded it up, it all seems to work, I auth and everything, actually typing this from behind it right now but i do have a bit of a concern.  The problem seems to be this.. i have a linksys which connects to my DSL (which is on the 192.168.0.xxx network) then the linux box is backed into that on eth0, and the eth1 is on 10.0.0.xxx.. now the speedstream has the wan port as 10.0.0.2, with a default gateway of 10.0.0.1 (linux) and to top it all off I have my wireless (and the "lan" portion) of the speedstream on 192.168.254.xxx.  This seems to be the only way I could get it all to work, as there is no real way to turn off NAT on the speed stream.  I don't have more then 1 wireless device to test, but it seems like my firewall rules for the linux box seem to let anything on the 10.0.0.2 (speedstream port) thru once someone authenticates to the nocat .. is this right? or is the firewall (iptables) going to properly catch that the requests from 10.0.0.2 are really NAT'ed and that it has to properly auth each persons session.  

It seems like the wireless should do some DHCP for the same network (10.0.0.xxx) as the port for the linux box, but it seems the speedstream won't let the WAN and the LAN have the same network addresses (stupid web gui!!).  So am I off base or is everything good the way it is??

thanks
