And, it seems like everything that I read is utilizing 2 nics (one for the internet side and one for the internal side) with a hub on the inside nic. I had something different in mind. In my case, my outside connection will be coming through an Alcatel USB modem. Then, I planned to use 2 nics for the inside (one for each of the two boxes that I'll have on my inside network). The two boxes on the inside need to be NAT'd by the firewall, as well. Can it be done this way?
