They need real ips, for what they do.   That's why I can't touch theirs.   I
dont think having 2 hubs would fix my problem.  Here, i'll restate what I
want to do, and you can tell me what would be the best thing to do in my
shoes;

This is my network right now;

MODEM
      |
   HUB
---------------------------------
|         |            |             |           |
ip      ip          ip           ip         linux computer
                                                |
                                               4 fake ips

Now, I want a router to take place of the linux computer, but not effect
those other 4 real ips.
