For @home customers, the service provider utilizes the address space of its customers as residing inside a firewall so that they can prevent customers running winblows from sharing their HDD with the world.

Thus, to @home, my cable modem is on an internal network.

Me/My Home Network (NAT Firewall) Cable Modem @home network (firewall) Da' Net

It's a saftey feature that @home providers tout.
