I'm under the impression that you use the NAT tab in the 'Network' object to do network address translation for your internal hosts. When would you use that NAT tab on the 'Workstation' Object?
If I did this...where would I connect the cat 5 cable that's connected from my DSL modem? Currently it's connected from the DSL modem to the external nic on the firewall computer.
I did try to call up my provider (Verizon) and try to get their router's ip address so I can add it to the settings as my default gateway. However, they claimed they wouldn't know the ip address of that particular router I'm connecting to because everything is dynamic. Are they blowin' smoke...

IF I hvae 2 NICS in a computer running Firewall-1, 1 NIC has the ip address of the internal LAN empty...

et me illustrate the scenario a bit.
I have a computer with Check Point installed and 2 NICS. (1 NIC with the legal ip address from my ISP and the other ip address for my internal LAN). I'm using a DSL modem and getting a dynamically assigned IP address from my provider.
I have a connection...
