Highlight: one router + one server box + multiple global ip addresses

I have one server box (one physical machine with win2k adv server OS) which bounds more than 10 IP addresses. The ip addresses are signed to different web sites, and different servers (such as DNS, Mail Server, FTP server). Recently I wanted to install a LinkSYS router as a firewall for the server box for protection. The problem is: the LinkSYS router can only binds one IP address. How can the different global IP addresses go through the router(firewall)? Can all of my IP addresses (rather than 192.168.x.x) be protected by one router? How can I do that?

Currently I use IP security setting to restrict IP/Port combination access without firewall (for example, deny all port access to 66.28.xx.xx except for the port 80). It works but Is that an alternative solution for firewall?

I am a newbie for firewall. Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.
