Hi Eric, Though I set up several Actiontecs so far, I have been fortunate that the needs have been very basic: a single dynamic or static IP address on the ISP end and basic needs on the LAN, using DHCP to assign 192.168.0.0/24 IP addresses and NAT for Internet access... The additional discussion has been enlightening for me.
