What you can do is this:

Int --> Cbl Mdm --> (DHCP) Router (10.0.0.1) --> (10.0.0.2) NetBarrier (192.168.1.1) --> Hub --> Other

Then have the Netbarrier set to share connections, but has 2 static IP's. The default gateway for the NetBarrier will be 10.0.0.1, and the default gateway for the other machines will be 192.168.1.1.

There will be a performance degradation due to the 2 gateways that you are using.

Another way to do this is what I have:

Internet --> Cbl Mdm --> OpenBSD Firewall --> (dhcp)router(192.168.1.1) --> Switch --> Everything else

If your firewall can support it, you can use the two NIC's in bridged mode, then have the firewall on the incoming NIC, and have a transparent firewall.
