OK..... Found the computer that was originally on the DSL line at work, on a fixed IP address. It's NT and the admin password is not available, so I cannot change it's fixed IP address.
So.... I have:
Public IP, fixed --to--> Cayman Router --to--> DHCP in range of 192.168.1.xxx --to--> SMC Barricade Router --to--> DHCP in range of 216.103.57.xxx --to--> my laptop, with a fixed IP that *IS* the public IP.
I have the public IP running through *TWO* NAT boxes to go out on it's own IP address?
My head hurts...

Without the password and with no real need,and with needing the router for another job I ripped it all out. I simply connected a server to his computer so that he could save his data separate from his computer -- which was all he wanted in the first place.
