Router help request

[MonMotha]

What you need to do is configure the router exactly as you would if it 
were a normal client using the settings given to you by your ISP (this 
is probably DHCP for a cable modem/non-PPPoE DSL), then set up ip 
masquerading on it.  On the clients behind your router (the ones to be 
masqueraded and won't have a public IP), assign them an IP in the range 
you told your router to masquerade, and set your router as their default 
gateway.  These internal clients need not know a thing about the outside 
world other than that they can get there through your router.
