[ale] Setting up LAN with ATT Westel Modem

[Joshua Chase]

Jim, sounds like you will want the Westel to be bridged to the router. Let
the router manage your internal DHCP. This will also be easier for setting
up any IP forwarding you want from the outside world into your internal
network i.e.  ssh connections and so forth.
