Thanks to all who responded with tips and advice. It turns out that it was
indeed my cable provider all along. Although they said I was set up for 2
IPs, they lied :-). Seems there was some obscure setting that wasn't set (at
their end...), and lo and behold no matter what I did, my two computers were
sharing 1 IP.

It took several phone calls and getting past the disclaimer "We don't
support networks". Yeah, I know, but I wasn't asking for support on my
network, I was asking for support on configuring the 2nd IP that you were
happily taking my money for :-)

Anyway, all is working fine now. Thanks again to all.

Michael
