"Your new DSL modem is essentially providing the same functions as your Linksys gateway (it's already doing NAT and firewall stuff before the packets even hit your Linksys). You have two choices, both which require your to edit settings in your DSL modem:

Configure the NAT settings you need directly on the DSL modem.
Configure the DSL modem to operate in bridged rather than routed mode.

Option #2 is the preferable choice because you'll be able to continue using your Linksys as previously configured. However, depending on the device, you may not be able to configure it in bridged mode. If that's the case, you'll have to go with option #1."
