RE: Where to buy Internet IP addresses

At our helpdesk we hear customers hanging their wireless router off their NATed PPPoA DSL modem all the time, such that 
its double-NATed.  That things work as well as they do is a testament to the resiliency of IP (and applications and 
servers) in the face of NAT.

I hear this a lot, but how many "linksys default channel 6" end users
really have more than one subnet, or even know what a subnet is?

By definition, every single one of them that buys wireless router, then
buys another and hangs it off the first. That happens more often then
you would think.
