[ale] [OT] make dsl modem visible?

[timtw at earthlink.net (Tim Watts)]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to make my dsl modem 
accessible from my lan while it's connected to the wan side of my router 
(WRT54G)? I've tried a number of configurations but no cigar. The closest I 
got was to put the modem in 'router' mode and connect it to the lan side of 
the router. Only problem there is I lose the port forwarding feature of the 
router and the modem's web interface is exposed to the Internet (despite 
having remote admin disabled on the modem).

This is an older model of the WRT54g so OpenWRT is a possibility. Could that 
help?
