can i make the internet recognize my internal proxy ip addresses and not the external router ip address?
i need to emulate 3 computers with their own ip addresses behind my router with one ip address assigned by my ISP, can this be done?

1. In short, no. All traffic out of your home will be tagged with the IP address of your cable/DSL modem that's assigned by the ISP.
To be more complicated, you could probably do what you need by assigning a unique port number to the connection for each computer, and tell your router to forward each port to the appropriate computer.
For example, if I want to run three different FTP servers on my home network, I would have to assign one to port 21, another to port 2105, and another to port 5688 (for example) and tell my router that port 21 goes to computer 1, port 2105 goes to computer 2, and port 5688 goes to computer 3.
2. blah blah blah blah blah blah
3. You should be able to configure your router so that incoming traffic to each of three particular ports (or ranges of ports) is forwarded by the router to each internal system.
If you need web access to the internal systems, you'll need to include the port number in the web address:
http://www.something.com:1234
where www.something.com is set up to go to the external router, and the port 1234 is forwarded by the router to one of the internal systems.
