Infinity with own router and statics

Morning,

I have been switched over to BT this morning from ZEN and paid for 5 IP addresses.

With Zen I used the BT modem and Smoothwall, the smoothwall PPOE'd into the modem and was allocated the static IP I paid for and I was able to use the rest of the IP addresses as I wish with port forwarding.

Problem is that my BT connection didn't get the router IP address I said I would be allocated, its a different one and the BT guy on the phone says I need to use the BT hub to use the 5 IP's

This seems a bit strange, I would have expected the router IP I paid for to be allocated to the router when you PPOE'd in.... the way he said it, it would mean the Fibre is routing and then I port forwarding.. seems strange.

Anyone used there own router with static IP's???
