Instead of a router you could try out the following NAT software, I've got
it setup and running now and it seems to work pretty well
http://www.nat32.com Of course you will still want some sort of firewall
protection too, in which case you may want to check out Lockdown2000 @
http://www.lockdown2000.com it is also capable of detecting and removing
trojans such as B.O etc

And I've got a saturn rep coming round tomorrow to talk turkey :) will keep
ya posted.

Cheers

I've just spoken with Saturn.

1 - It is a static IP.

2 - There is no firewall in the modem (i.e. no pinhole issue as with the
Nokia).

3 - The computer gets the public IP address. But only one IP address.
So those of you running several computers will have to get a router
running. Any old 386/486 will do for that.

Anyone heard any more?
