OK, I've got the cable modem hooked up to the OpenBSD firewall now. Here's a
traceroute from my desktop:

Hop #3 is the external IP address I get from DHCP, i.e., the "outside" IP
address on the firewall.  It's a 4-day lease, then it renews again with the
same IP address.

10.0.0.1 is the "inside" address of the firewall, 10.0.0.0/24 is my jumbo frame
subnet.  The 10.73.136.1 hop is a mystery.  I'm wondering if there's a
10.73.136/24 subnet "inside" the cable modem.


Also, the log from the dhcp client shows:

Jun  4 10:53:16: DHCPREQUEST on le1 to 68.87.71.16 port 67 Jun  4 10:54:01:
DHCPREQUEST on le1 to 68.87.71.16 port 67 Jun  4 10:56:10: DHCPREQUEST on le1
to 68.87.71.16 port 67 Jun  4 10:56:48: DHCPREQUEST on le1 to 255.255.255.255
port 67 Jun  4 10:56:48: DHCPACK from 10.73.136.1 Jun  4 10:56:48: bound to
68.63.157.203 -- renewal in 172800 seconds.

There's that 10.73.136.1 addr again...

Any ideas?
