Yes, that's what I have.  I  actually needed to alter the start of dynamic 
IP addresses to suit my own needs.  My wireless portables pick up a 
dynamic address just as normal (and NTP works correctly).

.. and we've been using these for getting the folk to set the port 
forwarding for the particular application.  Perhaps, in retrospect, 
getting them to force a fixed IP address for their PCs would have been a 
good idea as well.
