5 external IPs over 7 computers

[ejoech]

Hello. I work for a small company which has two offices, about 100 feet apart. We have FIOS with 5 static external IPs. We have two gigabit switches and would like the local network to be on gigabit for heavy file transfers. We want 5 out of the 7 computers to have static IPs that are on the outside but still be able to see the local network.

How would we best go about this setup?

Currently we have FIOS coming into a managed switch, one line from the switch to a SOHO router, and one line from the router 100' to a switch in the next office. The problem with this is we will not get gigabit speeds because it has to go through the SOHO router.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

For less then 10 computers this option 2 in this page can be a simple solution.

thanks for the link.

i tried it and i can't seem to get it working right..because both my switches need an external IP address and if my workstations IP address is not in the same subnet i can't view it.

im still very confused but i will keep trying..thank you.
