IF the router uses the same hostname for its "inside" ip address as it does
for its "outside" address (the DHCP assigned address you�re after), then
doing a PTR query (get hostname by ip) on the fixed inside ip address will
answer with a hostname. Then do an A query to an outside, public DNS with
that hostname to see the outside ip address.
hmmm, not real confident about all that. The first IF is a biggy.
