That sounds like NAT (Network Address Translation) 
You need to work out what bit of hardware is doing it (usually the router connected to 
your incoming line) and re-configure it to forward the correct port(s) the the 
appropriate machines.

In effect NAT allows you to split a single public facing IP address so that different 
ports are handled by different machines, you create what appears to be one machine out 
of a small internal network, the approximate opposite of binding several ip addresses 
to a single machine.

Many domestic routers support NAT, though often with a limit to the number of ports 
that can be forwarded.
