I guess I won't need to add routes to my gateway, only subnetting on the
inside will probably do for the time being (a hub/spoke topology,
routing only between directly-connected subnets). And many ISPs allow
you to buy your own CPE.

Using an AirPort Extreme (or other home router with similar features)
in bridged mode would do the trick, i guess.

:-)

cheers,

Carlos
