Hi noah, I do not understand your doubt, if you want the DHCP ip to be
changed from the internal network to the external network you don´t
need the $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $EXTIF -j SNAT --to $EXTIP
line, you just need

$IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $EXTIF -j MASQUERADE

holpe it helps, Allan
