    A port can only be forwarded to one IP address. Its like having the same postcard delivered to 5 different houses (not counting spam mail :p).

    The best thing you can do is use port triggering, if your router supports it. Basically, whatever computer starts uses port X for outgoing connections, port X (or possibly a different one) is automatically nat'ed to that computer.

    how do i know if it supports it?

    to put it bluntly... RTFM.

    if its unsupported, its possible a firmware upgrade will give you that feature, i know my router gained that function with a firmware upgrade.

    You could enable PnP (Plug and pray). Might do the job.
