[Gllug] [OT] dsl router advice?

[Wiehe, Simon]

I don't quite understand. Someone directs a packet at your ip address, say
152.16.45.1 and your server has an internal ip address of 192.168.254.3. I
thought the point of NAT was that the router receives a packet for 152.16.45.1
and you configure your router to forward any packets for the ip address
152.16.45.1 to the internal address of 192.168.254.3. Or am I missing the
point somewhere ?

Sorry it wasn't clear but I can't use NAT as its going to be VOIP which 
puts the IP address in the data so the system itself needs a public IP as 
the device the other end has no idea how to get to 192.168.x.x

I need public IPs on the server.
