Static WAN IP addresses with Linksys WRT54GS

My ISP gave me 5 static ip addresses for my own use, and 1 for my routers use. I have no clue how to get this working... When in the administration page (setup) of my router, there is a link titled 'Advanced Routing'. I am assuming this is where I need to set things up. Here are the options:

Operating Mode: (Options: Router or Gateway)

If router is selected, a dropdownlist pops up titled 'Rip'. The options given by this ddl are 'Disabled', 'LAN & Wireless', 'WAN (Internet)' and 'Both'.

Select set number: DDL - options 1() - 20()
Enter Route Name: (Blank textbox)

Destination Lan IP:
Subnet Mask:
Default Gateway:
Interfact: (LAN & Wireless or WAN)
--------------------------------------------------
My ISP gave me the following information:

IP For the modem: *.*.*.231
My IP's for my use: *.*.*.224 - 230

They also gave me the gateway and subnet mask...

I am trying to do something like this:

Request from wan (IP 224) :
WAN (ip 224) >> router (192.168.1.1) >> voip box (192.168.1.10)
WAN (ip 225) >> router (192.168.1.1) >> dev web svr (192.168.1.30)

Please help! I know what I want to do, but I can't figure it out...

Thanks for your help,

Stank

stankstank , thanks, but a pointer question is not meant to be used to award points. The maximum that can be awarded for a given question is 500 points, but you can split those up among as many participants as you like.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
