On a second reading, I believe you are right, but I snipped the part in his original message that confused me.

Brad, do you have control of your router? Why not just make the interface on the router, 192.168.0.1, and make ed0, 192.168.0.2, and then ed1 can just be your 255.255.255.128 masked net? -- Crist J.
