P.S.: Just to be clear, the other problem that the article finds with
NAT is that it enables you to share your connection with neighbors.
<dig, dig>...actually, this is the only problem the article finds. And,
yes, I can certainly understand why they consider it a problem: those
neighbors are getting, for free, the same bandwidth they would if they
paid for the cable modem service. Sounds like theft of services to me.
