[Nolug] Internal connection problem

Hope y'all can help with a little problem. My classroom is behind a Freesco
router/firewall, which gets a DHCP address every time it connects. (Pretty
often, with the number of times the external DHCP server goes down.) The
clients have static IP addresses of 192.168.0.xxx. All the clients can
freely access everything on the net, except the N.O. public school web site.
Though it has a real IP address from anywhere else in the world, when you
try to log on to www.nops.k12.la.us from inside the NOPS system the DNS
server points you to 192.168.0.50. This is conflicting with my internal
static addresses, and keeps giving a message that the site cannot be found.
What can I change to be able to access this site from inside the classroom?
(p.s. There are no other firewalled machines in the school. They get
individual DHCP addresses and have no problem connecting to the NOPS site.)
Thanks,
Dave Prentice
