VPN Network, DHCP Connection, and DDNS Not Working!!!

Question 1:
Is it possible to create a VPN Connection from the outside using diaup to a
network using a WRV54G Linksys VPN Router with a DHCP Connection (non-static
IP) and DDNS (dyndns.org)?

Our goal is to give both (and only the two) VPN users access to the complete
network via an internet connection.

When we added the VPN Users in the router all of our internal Network IP's
changed from 192.168.1.xxx to 10.56.182.xxx. Subnet Mask stayed the same at:
255.255.255.0.

The DHCP connection is provided by Hughesnet Sattelite Service and gives the
IP as 192.168.0.11 on the router's WAN IP Address.
DW7000 Info:
LAN1 IP Address: 192.168.0.1
LAN1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
NAT IP Address: 67.46.190.117 (the sattelite modem)
NAT Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.255
Router Address: 67.142.137.152 (the router itself)

When addressed directly in the browser:
67.46.190.117 brings me to the Sattelite Status page, the same as 192.168.0.1.

67.142.137.152 bring up "Failure To Connect To Web Server"

We have signed up with dyndns.org and subsequentially we given the xxx.
dnsalias.com, and have activated this in the router's Setup\DDNS page. The
results are:
DDNS Service:   DynDNS.org
User:   setup at dyndns
Pass:   setup at dyndns
Host Name: xxx.dnsalias.com
Internet IP Address:   192.168.0.11
Status:   DDNS is enabled.

We have gone into the applications and gaming page of the router and
forwarded port 1723 TCP to the internal network address of 10.56.182.0. I
'dunno if this is correct, but I saw this in many posting on this and other
sites.

We have also Set IPSec, PPTP, L2TP to enabled in the router. Although, all we
really want/need is the IPSec availability.

Question 2:
Do we need to place xxx.dnsalias.com in the router's setup page Domain Name
space as well?

Please understand I am totally a newbee at VPN, but not networking.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Many confused configurations.

1. If the ISP assigns 192.168.0.11 to WAN, the LAN IP should use different IP range.
2. Make sure just one DHCP for LAN.
3. DDNS space should hostname.dyndns.org.

Robert thanks for the reply.
>1. If the ISP assigns 192.168.0.11 to WAN, the LAN IP should use different IP range.
-- The ISP using DHCP assigned 192.168.0.11 to WAN, the LAN as stated after
setting up VPN Users changed to 10.56.182.xxx from the traditional 192.168.0.
xxx.
>2. Make sure just one DHCP for LAN.
--huh? make sure of what?
>3. DDNS space should hostname.dyndns.org.
--so I should replace the assigned "xxx.dnsalias.com" with "hostname.dyndns.
org"

Like I said I am ignorant to this, so if I just asked a stupid question (or
three) i appologize.

Thanks in advance for any assistance afforded,
John

Hello, please respond to my first post. The person who did respond to it,
left me hanging on nothing, or at least nothing that means anything to me,
way too cryptic for this newbee. Because of this, no-one sees my request
still needs an answer.

>1. If the ISP assigns 192.168.0.11 to WAN, the LAN IP should use different IP range.
-- The ISP using DHCP assigned 192.168.0.11 to WAN, the LAN as stated after
setting up VPN Users changed to 10.56.182.xxx from the traditional 192.168.0.
xxx.
>2. Make sure just one DHCP for LAN.
--huh? make sure of what?
>3. DDNS space should hostname.dyndns.org.
--so I should replace the assigned "xxx.dnsalias.com" with "hostname.dyndns.
org"
