Battle Of The Iethernet Cards

I can only set up a lease for 1 day, which I was doing, but it occasionally
messed me up.  I need to figure out some sort of VPN that will let my other
machines access the Linux box through the modems.  I wish I could get rid of
a modem, but I can't.  Maybe I'll look at other routers but not just yet.
