   I have separate unix boxes for mail server and web server so I would   
   like different port forwarding rules within the router. I think its   
   either a question of router functionality or  .. maybe they have sent me   
   the wrong router. I was hoping that an existing TalkTalk business   
   customer might have trodden this path before.   
      
   FWIW I believe its a block of 4 addresses, 2 of which are usable - I am   
   only paying for 2
