I'm not even sure they offer more than 1 IP.  Years ago,

What does that actually mean? Aren't all the PCs behind a firewall, and doesn't each have a unique IP address that is
not ordinarily visible on the Net?

All your PC's will have the same IP on the Internet side of
the Router.  On the LAN they will be unique, and you can
change them if you want to.

Isn't it the router (or cable/DSL modem) that gets the Internet side IP address? I don't understand how two computers on the Internet can have the same IP address.
