    The ADSL modem will NAT more than 1 ip and it does do it if it wasn't
assigned with DHCP, I also have a notebook attached to it and I have set the
IP manually and using DHCP both work fine. I now know that it isn't an ip
forwarding problem as I can see the echo (ping) request leave via the
network card, it must be that the modem isn't sending its response back via
the Linux box. I have since broken my network un into 2 subnets and told
the modem that the Linux box is the gateway for the second subnet but it
still isn't working, I must have something wrong with either the subnet or
the route from the modem to that subnet.

Thanks
