Let me jump in and state that this is what I did (exact same setup,
U.S. West, 675, FreeBSD), and it worked great.

However, I switched to a different ISP since they allowed me to have my
own block of addresses for a much cheaper price than what U.S. West
charged, plus they have a more 'stable' network connection.

The original configuration worked well, and I don't think you would
notice any problems using the double-NAT configuration whatsoever,
although you could simply hook all your boxs directly to the Cisco and
use it that way instead, which may be easier for you.

The NAT implementation on the cisco seemed to work quite well...
