I'm hoping you guys might be able to suggest something for me here.

I have an Nortel Instant Internet 100-s, which has three Ethernet ports.

The 100-s has an 3DES IPSec VPN ability that I would like to use, but of
course if I connect it to the ADSL network via a router such as the Nokia
M1122 then the IPSec traffic will not survive NAT.

The 100-s is capable of doing PPPoE but I need a bridge to plug into it.
Or I need an IPSec aware router, which I have heard of but never seen.
I know that there are other products that can do the IPSec and the ADSL like
the Cisco 827 but that's pretty pricey.

So I have 3 questions...
Can anyone suggest an Ethernet to ADSL bridge that might work with the
Nortel Instant Internet 100-s?
Can anyone suggest an IPSec aware ADSL router than might work with the
Nortel Instant Internet 100-s?
Can anyone suggest any other ADSL routers that can do IPSEC (3DES
encryption) ?

Thanks in advance.

Actually I have another question. Why is this stuff so hard in NZ? My
counterpart in Sydney plugged the 100-s into an Alcatel Speedtouch home,
entered his credentials and it worked first time. (The Speedtouch home is
not on the market in NZ).
