   There are issues regarding NATing ESP tunnels...  In fact, what I've   
   found so far is ESP doesn't use any particular port so it can't really   
   be NAT'd...  Therefore, the switch allow you to have your tunnel going   
   through a NAT by specifying the desired NAT port so it can "direct/fake" it.   
      
   I never tried your netgear model but it's what I had to do with my   
   Nortel Contivity VPN switch...   
      
   good luck !
