Yes... on Farallon's web page there is a technote on how to set up the
PM2 for a Netopia dial-in. In fact you'll find the tech note at:

You're correct that the Netopia sounds like what you need. The Ascend
implementation of NAT is a little far out with a one-to-one relationship
between global addresses and private addresses. The way the Netopia uses
ONE global address to the many private addresses is a better way of going
about it, in my mind.
If you have questions, feel free to email: techsports@farallon.com
