In order to route traffic between your local network and the Internet 
WITHOUT using NAT, then your ISP needs to assign a routeable public 
subnet to you as well as at least one address on a segment shared with 
one of their routers. Somehow, I get the feeling that this isn't the 
case so probably will need to use NAT.

FreeBSD gives you a few choices when it comes to building a 
router/firewall box. As always the handbook is the best place to start:

Incidentally, the handbook is available in multiple languages:
