Carlo, Jeff: Thanks. The two machines recognize one another through the internal IPs of the router. Now I can submit the computation from the i386 machine to either my other machine amd64, internal to the router, or to any supercomputer center where I have an account along an ssh connection. Surprisingly, after an initial period where the i386 took any one of the two internal IP addresses (indipendently which machine was started first), now the two machines behave as if they had a static address (it is dhcp). I have not investigated the Zyxel router, it is as if it had a memory or a register, or he likes me.
