I can't imagine that this solution can work.

What would work, however, is installing an AirPort card as the second 
network interface, going wireless to the DSL-router (or wherever you 
are connecting to).

Or, if you can live with the (calculable) risk of a single physical 
ethernet port, you should be able to just create a pseudo-interface 
with a second subnet.
