This doesn't sound right - you certainly can route more than one class C
through a PortMaster. It is not unusual at all to have the the ether on
one Class C, the serial ports on the subnet of another, and one port routing
one ore more networks to a dedicated customer.

What you cannot do is have the ether0 port sit on more than one network.
