I plan on using it as a firewall Man if your 200mmx is a firewall whats the rest of your system look like :-) I hook up using isc-dhcp2 and I use natd for my internal network If you get isc-dhcp2 working the natd stuff is so your internal network can also use the same connection. I also have 2 ethernet cards on my system that is connected via cable modem. Not to roderunner but to mediaone. It works nicely so far for me. I know you can run more than one machine over the same connection. I believe you'll want to make sure you have 2 ethernet cards on the server that is connected.
