Unless im mistaken no one mentioned a correct definition for a gateway...so...a gateway is a device or software program that allows the connection of two different types (running different protocols) of networks (as you said). A router often qualifies as a gateway (hardware). whatever allows you, (software installed on your parents computer, or a router or whatever) to "see" out qualifies as a gateway. Like a gateway to a garden or something, it channels all the traffic through it. Excuse my technical definitions ;) hope it helps
