Windows XP internet sharing

Need a hand with this.

I have a server that is connected to a switch where it gets its internet connection and then connected to my HTPC. That share works well, the HTPC gets internet from the server.

However I want to share a second time, I want to share the connection FROM the HTPC to my Dreambox. But if I try to click the "share internet connection" checkbox it tells me that the address will be changed to 192.168.0.1. This won't work since my server has that IP. Is there any way to tell windows to use 192.168.1.1 instead?

To clarify a bit, it's setup like this.

Server
Network 1: Internet
Network 2: Direct to HTPC in a private network (192.168.0.1)

HTPC
Network 1: Direct to Server in a private network (DHCP)
Network 2: Direct to Dreambox in a private network

And yes I know that a router would be a much better choice than my current setup but this works for me at the moment so please give me a hand ;)

Oh and both the server and HTPC are running Windows XP SP3.
