You have to use a combination of NAT and PAT (NAT is Network address
translation and PAT is Port address translation) on the router.

Depending on your router you will be able to configure it to do what you
On your router you "should" be able to do the following:
Redirect connections to 188.8.131.52 port 2222 to 192.168.1.2 port 22 AND
Redirect connections to 184.108.40.206 port 2223 to 192.168.1.3 port 22
You then can connect using your favourite ssh client (mine is absolute
telnet :-) ) by connecting to 220.127.116.11 port 2222 you'll be connected
to 192.168.1.2 via ssh.
Hope this helps
