A decent ISP will give you a dynamic publicly accessible IP for free, and charge you extra for your own public static address. For an ISP to be doing NAT on it's network for it's customers, and be charging to give them a public IP which I'm guessing is still dynamic, is a rip off. Anyway, you have 3 machines you said with internet connections. However, you still have one public IP address, unless you purchased a block of static addresses. So, my point still stands, your modem or router is still doing IP masquerading for you, and assigning an internal IP to each of your 3 machines.
