I would recommend buying a DSL/Cable router from Linksys, D-Link, SMC, or 3Com. For $150 you can get the Linksys BR-41 DSL/Cable router. This supports NAT, DHCP, firewall capabilities and port traslations for people wanting to host web, ftp, etc..on the inside. The BR-41 has a built in 4 port 10/100 switch. It cheap, reliable and gives you back you computer to do other things with. I have had my linksys since June, and the only time it has ever been off, was during an electrical storm in August that knocked out power. Zero problems, 100% satisfaction.
Better (cheaper) solution than proxy
