The router would have one public IP and uses a private subnet for your LAN side. The other end of an outbound connection sees the NATed public address. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Possibly your system was installed or cloned using PartedMagic, and that left an entry in /etc/ethers mapping your default nic to the name 'PartedMagic'?
