If you check the archives for this list you'll find that M1122's can be
configured to work in a PPTP passthrough mode where one computer makes a
PPTP connection to the M1122, and the computer itself gets the real
internet IP address. Unfortunately the rented Telecom M1122's can't be
configured like this since you don't know the admin password, but if you
own the modem you can do it.

 From memory it was Craig that had the info on how to do this...
