That is odd that you need dhclient. As I understand it, since the cisco is
always 10.0.0.1 it should always "know" about all machines in 10.0.0.x
I haven't tried but I believe I could set my RaQ's external IP to any IP
above 10.0.0.1 and the cisco would recognize it.
When the cisco is set up as a DHCP server, it serves out IPs starting at
10.0.0.2. I vaguely remember when I first set it up over a year ago I
was doing DHCP on my local machines. The cisco and all machines were plugg=
ed
into the hub. Then I set up the firewall and, after learning a bit, I
decided to use static IPs internally. I think the firewall RaQ was given
10.0.0.4 and that's why it's still got it even though it's static (just
never bothered to change it).
Oh, by the way, you might find this URL helpful with other DSL stuff:

Sorry, Vaughn, I can't be of help with the Win dial up problem. I don't
have any Win machines set up for dial-up. You would think you could
just click on something to change between the two - at worst you'd have
to reboot - but I would think it could be done. Then again, what we
mere mortals might think obvious and/or rational cannot be applied when
dealing with a system that knows better than the user what the user
wants/needs.
You might try one of the windows news groups or sites (sorry, again, I
don't have any references to provide) if you haven't already.
Best wishes,
Dan
