[ale] New Linksys router on its way

[Alex Carver]

Mine is not in DMZ mode.  The 2Wire box has its own IP address and my
personal IP addresses are completely different (the 2Wire starts
98.x.x.x and my IPs are 108.x.x.x).  Essentially they've VLANed another
network on top of my connection to supply me with my static IPs while
the VoIP is coming through the primary VLAN (98).  The box doesn't
bother tracking the connections from my internal network as it goes
through the 108 VLAN beyond tagging/routing the packets through the
switch to steer them to the right VLANs.  The devices that do hang off
the NAT portion of the 2Wire do get tracked but their traffic passes
through the 98 VLAN and come out of the box NATted onto the 98 address.
