I guess I don't understand. Here are the interfaces again: Eth0 - aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd (Valid IP Address) Wan0 - 192.168.104.2 <--> ISP IF 192.168.104.1 <--> Internet Packets originating from the machine with a non-local destination are assigned the address from the Wan0 interface. Forwarding is turned on and packets coming in the Eth0 interface go out the Wan0 interface. This part works. > 1. Configure it on loopback. How would this work? > 2.

I don't think this solves the problem that packets originating from that host are assigned the address of the Wan0 interface. > 3.
