How to learn a router's latest dynamic IP address when I'm outside its LAN?

I have a client who has two computers behind a Linksys BEFSR41 router and a DSL modem that receives a dynamic IP, sometimes quite frequently.  

The people who work on the computers are completely incompetent. Thus, I need to be able to administer the systems externally.  To do this, I have to know the IP address of the router.

Since none of the computers inside the router are aware of when the IP address changes, how can I have the latest IP address reported to me?  Is there a way to have an internal system cue the router for this info and report it to me?
