IP Cop is the router/default gateway for your network.  So with IP Cop it
looks like:

Internet <----> Modem <---> - IPCop (NIC 1) - IPCop (NIC 2) <---> Internal
Network.  

"Internal network" is a hub or switch that everything else is pluged into.

There is nothing between your Cable/DSL modem and IPCop NIC 1.
