If I were you I'd:
- forget about the cable modem and IP masquerading for now
- use netcfg to set up the Ethernet cards with appropriate IP addresses (eg
192.168.1.254, 192.168.254.254)
- test the basic router function using Macs on both Ethernet segments
- reconfigure for the cable modem
- set up IP masquerading.
You will save a lot of time through a step by step approach!
