Still trying to understand the NAT thing. Read a little bit and here is my best guess: NAT translates WAN traffic into local IP addresses so the right network PC gets the right data... having two NATs back to back like a router and then another router would confuse the second NAT. Bridge mode on one router makes the two play together nicely so traffic can flow. Close enough to correct?
Home automation will be an upcoming project in the next few years. I'm mildly familiar with the RPi, though I hate it, and can Arduino my way out of a paper bag pretty well (it doesn't even have to be wet paper!!!) All I really lack, in my opinion, is a lot of experience with the parts like servos and motor control boards etc, so with time that'll all fall into place. That's for another day though.
