What you want has been discussed a lot on the list within the last couple
months. Look up the emails dealing with "IP NAT" and "IP masquerading".
These are two names for the same thing. I know that Charles Sebold sent a
how-to to the list.

I'm impressed that the college provides you with the means to connect. Most
colleges provide you with a wall socket and a software config disk. Beyond
that the connection, including cards/transcievers are your problem.
