Any thoughts anyone?

Umm... The DSL-300 modem specs on the D-Link web site make no mention of DHCP or NAT support (it is, after all, equivalent to a modem, and probably designed for use by a single PC whose MAC address it binds to). The DSL-500 router specs do offer DHCP and NAT (which is what I use on my LAN).

Good luck,
Shay
