2 Xbox's, 1 IP addy

Is is possible to have 2 Xbox's on one IP address? I currently have 2 xboxs connected to my Linksys BEFSR41 router and occasionally one of them will disconnect saying "cannot connect to xbox live". I have tryed putting one of them in the DMZ but it seems to have no effect. I am using the 1.44.2z, Dec 13 2002 firmwire and would upgrade but my PC games dont like the new firmwire.

I have heard that the 2 IP package works if you set it with the hub connected to one xbox and a router and the other Xbox and PC to the router

Any Ideas?

I know it works if you have one hosting a game and the other one joining, but not sure about them if they are in different games, you can't host two different games different games tho. I know thats mostly to do with bandwidth but I know the person who did it only had one ip and a router to test it.
