TUrns out the Motorola thingie is a router (one port router that is).

But it had a DSL light on this morning so I connected and set up the AT&T DSL.

Yeah, you can tell it to give out the public ip instead of a NATed IP.

Yep, I found the option, although it's working pretty well so far even with the dual NAT.

I'm running a Cradlepoint MBR-1000 (Refurbished) with a Verizon USB727 broadband modem as backup--the MBR-1000 supports three broadband WWAN cards, two USB and one ExpressCard. Might put my AT&T SIM into an ExpressCard when/if I move to an area that has coverage, it will load balance them if the ethernet WAN goes down.

*nod*

I set it to that to make random inbound port forwardings easier.

I'm much more cheapass about connectivity -- AT&T's non-linesharing 1500/384 DSL.

I use a Soekris box (embedded PC sorta thing) with m0n0wall, though I want to try pfsense someday. Been using a refurb Airport Express (n) for an access point (and then another accesspoint which is an AP-65 from work which does this clever "remote AP" thing which is like an access point and VPN tunnel all in one and it's totally NAT-tolerant and stuff.)
