Router looks like a proxy

[Graham North]

Okay, so maybe this is a dumb question but I need to ask....

My Apache logs are showing only calls from its own address...hmmm!
Methinks that this is because all calls come in first through my USR
Router/firewall - Yes the router has DHCP and the firewall enabled.
Is it therefore inevitable that I will only see routed calls as originating
from the router address - or do I have something set up incorrectly between
my FreeBSD box and the router?   Can I make my router more "transparent" and
yet still retain its firewall?  I know that I am getting hits from outside
if only by the hack attacks plus a few accesses by myself from other
locations such as mywork and/or from friends.

Advice..?

Thanks,  Graham/
