I am kind of confused by the page. It mentions ipchains and iptables, you
can't use both can you?
You mention using a reading a Bridge+Firewall+DSL howto. It looks like
you are using NAT and not a bridge. Nothing wrong with using NAT only, I
just don't know why you mentioned the bridge.
Have you looked at http://bridge.sourceforge.net?
