I just plug in my FON router into a port of my internal Network. The 
gateway on the internal Net does Nat.

I can reach the FON router from internal Net, the web interface of the 
FON Router.I can not reach my internal Net over the FON Router. 
Everything on the Internet can be reached over the FON Router.

This is all what I need. I just need wireless connection to the Internet 
and with the help of FON all other people in my neighborhood can reach 
Internet wireless, too :-)

I did not look deeply how this works, I just tested if it was possible 
to reach my internal Net over the FON router and this was not possible. 
This is what I need. Just share some of my bandwidth for other people 
with Fon wifi :-) and my internal Net is safe (I hope).

Regards, Thomas
