Ok, please please bear with me. I been fight with my ips and Linksys
to get my network back up.

Background

I have DSL. The company I am with, started me out on a ADSL that they
set up with my block of ip's. I have 16. 13 that I can use. One lost
to Network, Boardcast, and the gateway. On friday, I move from my old
little house to my new big house. The old house could work with ADSL.
The new house as fiber to the house. Because of this, I can't no
longer use my modem. I had to purchase a router that support PPPoE, no
problem, most due. Here where the problem because. I can connect to my
ISP and I get my WAN ip, and I can get out, because NAT'ing is turn
on, but I can't get in. If I turn NAT'ing off I can't get in or out.

Problem

Let me explain a bit about my network, I hope this helps and doesn't
confuse everyone. I will change the ip's for safety reason. But you
should be able to follow along. My router is a Linksys, it might be
the problem. It is BEFSR41 Version 4.3. I got in and set it up for
PPPoE with my user id and password. I connect I get the wan ip of
47.216.14.229, Now I give my router the ip of 47.216.17.87 with a
subnet of 255.255.255.240. Now my boxes are on the same
47.216.17.86/28 network. I go in the router and turn off NAT'inng. I
can from my linux box ping 47.219.14.229 but I can't ping any thing
belong it.

The Questions...

Does anyone know of a good cheap DSL Router that I can set my gateway
ip and it will allow all my other ip's to go out, and do PPPoE? I was
told that some people flah linksys routers to get it more use. Does
anyone know what the software is and a link to the page? It's most off
the shelves routers are for people with no static or one. Oh, the
range for the router needs to be in the $50 to $80 range, I might be
able to go as high as $100.

Does anyone have a Linksys BEFSR41 and more that one static IP? Have
you gotten yours to work?

If I can't get this done with router what would it take for my linux
box to be able to do this. It currently has two nic, one is
47.216.17.88/28 and the other is 192.168.65.2/24. Does I need a third
Nic? Would this be wise, would the other computers be able to get out?

Does anyone have any Advice beside "RTFM"?

I know it weird to ask this list, but I am at a lost. My websites, no
email and wife that doesn't understand that some times these things
take a bit of work.

Thanks a head of time.

Payne
