Yes. I'm running a similar setup, but with an ISDN router with PAT instead of
ADSL. So, in my case even the port number changes.

Yes you can (have to actually), but not in the CIPE control panel. You should set
the IP number of the CIPE adapter. Go to my network places, properties, <the newly
installed CIPE adapter>, properties,  internet protocol. After you set this, it
will appear in the grayed out field in the cipe control panel.
