When it comes to NAT, I'm willing to bet that the average ppml
subscriber is less likely to NAT than the public at large, so
any response is (at best) skewed.
With that said, I have to throw in with Bill and Owen and admit to no
NAT in my house.
What I find interesting, is that I've been telling people that use
NAT that they aren't actually on the Internet -- but rather proxied
to it. In the last six months or so several folks have indicated that
they actually understood that statement.
Is it possible that people are finally starting to see that NAT breaks
end-to-end connectivity? (Or am I just hanging out with a better/worse crowd?)
