Doesn't your ISP provide your Cable connection with
an static IP? (I believe that is what you said)
Do you then just plug this in to your net/hub?
Can you then simply use internal IP's (those
dropped from external gateways, because they are known to be internal) on your
private net (10.x.x.x. 172.16.x.x to 172.35.x.x (i think) and the
192.168's)
then specify the cable connection's IP as your
gateway?
It may work... ??????
Hope it helps,

Sharing
I'm moving back to campus this weekend and will be wanting
to share a Cable connection with my new roommate. Cash is a little tight
right now so I'm not really wanting to buy a router or another NIC for my
board. Is there a way to share my connection just using one NIC and
a switch? Basically can I have one alias get a DHCP IP from the provider
and the other alias have a static 192.168.x.x address for my internal LAN even
though they're on the same NIC?
