DHCP doesn't actually mean that the address will be dynamic - DHCP can
give you the same ip address every time it is requested. It simply moves
the details of configuration from you to your ISP.
You probably want to talk with your ISP about this - I would expect you
to get one IP assigned to your connection that is expected to be your
routers IP address and then it is up to you to take care of routing your
subnet to your internal network. You may assign all address to the one
machine but only one address will get the traffic to be routed to the
other addresses.
