Hi
If you can assign an external IP to a computer pass the Router and it works
with the Internet, then it means that your Router does not work as a Router.
Pass the Router only internal IPs (the 192.168.x.x ) should work.
Check care fully all the Router settings. The whole IP scheme DHCP, etc,
depends also on how your are using SBS you have to make sure that there is
only one DHCP on and that the Gateways and DNS are configured correctly
according to the roil of the server.
