@Nanashi

my understanding is correct, you have 1 router that has a interface to your ISP and another interface with your RFC 5737 address. Everything else you have confirmed is as i wrote.

2) you are not testing NAT, you are routing from outside in, Network Address Translation as its name suggests translates network addresses. It maps inside addresses to tcp ports on outbound connections so that when the traffic comes back it can translate that outside dst address to the correct inside address. That is what NAT is.

>Did you read my posts above?

yes but your still routing and not nat'ing despite how much you write.

If your ISP supplied home router is so crap that it accepts and forwards traffic with dst addresses being in the same rfc 1918 address range as those on the inside of your network then you need to get a better router. it won't work with connections originating from the internet.
